ABSTRACT

Richard Dawkins is one of many evolutionary theorists alive today. Yet, I think he has been the most effective of them in understanding the complexity of this part of biological science and presenting its concepts to the world in both an interesting and a digestible manner. He, like Darwin, has contributed an impressive list of readable books that teach evolutionary concepts. His writing style makes his topics interesting because he has a wealth of animal behavior tales at his disposal to weave into his narrative. His writing style is enjoyable because he is imaginative in breaking down

the complexity into chunks of everyday concepts, which we can follow, and then translating each lesson’s essence back into the sphere of biology.
