In this landmark live event, world-renowned evolutionary biologist and bestselling author Richard Dawkins takes the stage to mark fifty years of The Selfish Gene: the book that reframed our understanding of life, behaviour, and human nature. Reflecting on its revolutionary ideas, the global debates it ignited, and five decades of subsequent research, this is a rare opportunity to hear one of the most influential scientific minds of our time discuss the work that defined his career.
