“The Selfish Gene” by Richard Dawkins

Daft Punk’s 1997 “Homework” album

“The Atomic Cafe” 1982 documentary film

Edit: Vonnegut, the far side and Calvin and Hobbes for making me feel like I’m not crazy and most people are peddling a tremendous amount of bullshit.

The Selfish Gene changed the way I see life itself. That and The Blind Watchmaker. I also love Unweaving the Rainbow.

Agreed on the Selfish Gene.

I started on Unweaving the Rainbow but didn’t make much progress.

Dawkins can be a proper tool, but at least that book was quite interesting.
