I was wondering if anyone had some thoughts to share about this book?
I'm currently in the process of reading it and only have finished the first couple (1 & 2) of chapters. I get the general idea though. We are simply 'vehicles' or 'survival machines' made for our genes. We are programmed for the purpose of increasing our survival chances may that be through selfish acts or altruistic acts, which in the end are simply selfishness in disguise.
So far it's a rather bleak outlook...
