The evolutionary scientist and popular-science writer Richard Dawkins (born March 26, 1941 in Nairobi, Kenya) highlighted the gene as the driving force of evolution and stirred up considerable controversy with his passionate support of atheism. Dawkins was born into a scientific family.

The majority of Dawkins' youth was spent in Kenya, where his father served as a military officer during World War II. It wasn't until 1949 that the family returned to England. Dawkins enrolled at Balliol College, University of Oxford, in 1959, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in zoology in 1962, making him the first person in history to do so. He stayed at Oxford, where he earned his master's and doctoral degrees in zoology in 1966 under the supervision of ethologist Nikolaas Tinbergen, who was well-known at the time. Dawkins worked as an assistant to Tinbergen before becoming an assistant professor of zoology at the University of California, Berkeley from 1967 to 1969. In 1970, he returned to Oxford to teach zoology at the University of Oxford.

In 1976, he released his first book, The Selfish Gene, in which he attempted to correct what he saw to be a common misunderstanding of Darwinism via a series of case studies. Natural selection, according to Richard Dawkins, occurs at the genetic level rather than at the level of the species or person, as was previously believed. According to him, genes exploit the bodies of living things to aid in their own survival by allowing them to reproduce. He also popularised the idea of "memes," which he described as "the cultural counterpart of DNA." Ideas and ideas, ranging from fashion to music, take on a life of their own within society and, via the process of propagation and mutation from mind to mind, have an impact on the progression of human development. According to Dawkins, the idea was called after the Greek term mimeme, which means "to mimic." It eventually became the basis for an entire area of research known as memetics. Although the book was noteworthy not just for its message, it also stood out because of its simple language, which made it accessible to a wide range of readers.
