Hans,
The file samples.tex requests updated bibliography data for some of the samples. Since the file is a few years old, it is not clear if this information has already been provided.
no, so feel free to provide more
If it is still needed, here are entries for three of the sources and a note on the source of another, along with corrections for a few typos.
The first bibtex entry was lifted from Google Boooks, the other two from the ACM Digital Library.

reich.tex is a list of the voice samples from Steve Reich's 1995 composition /City Life/.
Corrections for dawkins.tex, douglas.tex, and knuth.tex:
In each set, the first line is taken from the current sample file and the second is a correction. The dawkins.tex and douglas.tex corrections are based on scanned images on Google Books, the knuth.tex correction is based on my personal copy of the book (first edition second printing).
dawkins.tex is from pages 145 and 146 of the book

I also note that all of the quotes in the Dawkins source are single-quotes, not double-quotes as in dawkins.tex, \quote{}, not \quotation{}. This is unusual for a book printed in the USA by an American publisher, so perhaps Dawkins wanted it that way.
I wonder if there are differences between UK english and US english (I once saw the same book in a shop, oen from the uk, one from the us, and although they looked nearly the same (size, font) the pagebreaks were different ... do they really bother about these things?

There are a few other differences, but these are most likely due to publisher's style sheet and the lack of availability of logotypes for TeX and Metafont.
