Believe it or not there's a new book called 'Dawkins vs Gould'. I forget
the author now, but I was looking at it in a bookshop the other day
(Blackwells in Charing Cross Road as it happens). Anyway, it apparently
deals with their disagreements over issues of evolution at level of
genes/organisms, gradualism/punctuation etc. etc. I don't know what the
conclusion is.
BTW, anybody read Mayr's 'What Evolution Is'? It got a fantastic review in
the Times Higher Education Supplement the other day.
