Richard Dawkins: How a Scientist Changed the Way We Think, en français Richard Dawkins: Comment un scientifique a changé la façon dont nous pensons, est un Festschrift de 25 essais écrit en l'honneur de Richard Dawkins et de ses travaux, à l'occasion du 30e anniversaire de la publication du Gène égoïste. Il est publié en 2006 par Oxford University Press (ISBN 978-0199291168). Il n'a pas été traduit en français.
Un grand nombre de sujets sont abordés, de la biologie de l'évolution, à la philosophie, en passant par la psychologie. Certains écrivains en désaccord avec Dawkins ont contribué à l'ouvrage. L'ensemble est édité par Alan Grafen et le zoologue Mark Ridley.
