Bad Points
No bad points. The opening chapters seem quite technical to someone who knows little about the subject. However, persevere- it's well worth it.
General Comments
The Selfish Gene is perhaps the best pop-science book that I have ever read. Well written, deeply insightful and written with humour and a desire to enlighten.
The New York Times quotes "read Dawkins and feel like a genius". True.This is a definite must have for anyone with an interest in popular science.
