http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Dawkins#Evolutionary_biology for a
start.
*A* book? No, several books at least. Heard the word "meme"? He coined
it to describe how Darwinian principles might be extended to explain the
spread of ideas and cultural phenomena. (from the same wikipedia
article). That's a pretty significant contribution as well (and one I
didn't know about, actually).
Read the bio and then let's talk about what he's ever done. ;-)
