Episode 47| The Selfish Gene | Evolution, Genes & Human Behavior | English video

from BYK Book Summary · host BYK Book Summary

In this episode, we explore The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins in simple English. The book explains the gene-centered view of evolution and shows how genes, not species, are the main units of natural selection. It also explores why cooperation, altruism, and survival behavior can still make sense from an evolutionary point of view. This is a great summary for listeners interested in science, biology, and human behavior.
