One of the most outstanding intelligences in modern British science. Richard Dawkins climbs mental Everests. Times Educational Supplement.
Dawkins is quite incapable of being boring. His clarity and vivacity as a writer are so many orders of magnitude removed from many of us as to be desperately enviable. Geofffey Parker, Heredity.
The extended phenotype is certainly a big idea and it is pressed hard in dramatic language. Sydney Brenner, Nature.
'This may be the most important book on evolutionary biology in the last decade or two.' Antoni Hoffman, Zentralblatt fur Geologie und Palaeontologie
This is a contender for the title of the most important contribution to evolutionary biology in the 1980s. J. R. G. Turner, Journal of Biological Education
