Short Description: "Richard Dawkins FRS FRSL (born Clinton Richard Dawkins; 26 March 1941)[24] is an English ethologist, evolutionary biologist, and author. He is an emeritus fellow of New College, Oxford, and was the University of Oxford´s Professor for Public Understanding of Science from 1995 until 2008.

Dawkins first came to prominence with his 1976 book The Selfish Gene, which popularised the gene-centred view of evolution and introduced the term meme. With his book The Extended Phenotype (1982), he introduced into evolutionary biology the influential concept that the phenotypic effects of a gene are not necessarily limited to an organism´s body, but can stretch far into the environment. In 2006, he founded the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science." - (en.wikipedia.org 18.08.2020)
