On pg. 7, Dawkins writes: "I am pretty confident that to look at life in terms of genetic replicators preserving themselves by means of their extended phenotypes is at least as satisfactory as to look at it in terms of selfish organisms maximizing their inclusive fitness."

I'm not familiar with the term, "inclusive fitness." I could google it, of course, but I thought I would just ask here.
