“Bracingly intelligent, lucid, balanced—witty, too. . . . A scrupulous and charming look at our modern understanding of genes and experience.” — Oliver Sacks Armed with extraordinary new discoveries about our genes, acclaimed science writer Matt Ridley turns his attention to the nature-versus-nurture debate in a thoughtful book about the roots of human behavior. Ridley recounts the hundred years' war between the partisans of nature and nurture to explain how this paradoxical creature, the human being, can be simultaneously free-willed and motivated by instinct and culture. With the decoding of the human genome, we now know that genes not only predetermine the broad structure of the brain, they also absorb formative experiences, react to social cues, and even run memory. They are consequences as well as causes of the will.

This science writer looks at the hundred year debate about whether people's qualities are determined by their genes or by their environment. He suggests that it might be time to replace it with a new image of nature and nurture working in tandem, arguing that genes are designed to take their cues from nurture and that nurture is also dependent on genetic makeup.

The Dominant Gene is a business novel series about the journey to becoming an Agile leader. At the highest level, an Agile leader is fearless; not afraid to serve others, to learn daily, and to sense and adapt to uphold quality and customer value. Each journey is different, because we are from all different industries, backgrounds, and corporate cultures. No matter your journey, you can be assured that the ride will be undulating, time consuming, and very personal. And, you will learn that the destination is not the end, but the beginning. The Dominant Gene offers an up-close view into one leader's quest to become an Agile leader: the struggles, victories, and learnings. You're invited to join Joel as he grows from comfort and complacency to an Agile leader. It is my hope you will be entertained, disturbed, and motivated to end your comfy world of complacency, and begin to grow. When it gets hard, when you feel like quitting, remember you are not alone; you have me and an entire Agile community here to help. Reveille, the first book of The Dominant Gene series Joel is an IT director at Watzka Legacy, the technology arm of a large, American corporation. In Reveille, the first book of The Dominant Gene series, Vice President Lora informs Joel and two of his peers that they must commit to Agile leader coaching, because the company is "going Agile." Effective immediately, Joel is assigned to Eve, an experienced master coach, with a practical side. But Joel doesn't believe he needs to change. His career and things at Watzka Legacy are going just fine. To make matters worse, all Eve seems to want to talk about is Lean leader standard work. Where is the Agile in this Agile coaching? Over hot drinks at a local cafe, Eve reveals to Joel that his career at Watzka Legacy is definitely not fine. In fact, his unexpected awakening is all at once exhilarating and disturbing, and is occurring in many parts of his life. Join Joel on his undulating journey to becoming a better leader, an Agile leader."

Should a species smart enough to foresee its own demise be able to consciously evolve in order to overcome threats to its existence? Evolve reveals the nexus of evolutionary biology, sustainability and peace on the journey to PACEM 2050. There is a Burning Platform threating our species. Although our species is extremely good at cooperation, social polarization is preventing our citizenry from being in adequate alignment to adopt the necessary public policy to mitigate future ecological disaster. There are only three scenarios going forward: extinction; eusocial evolution, or a long-term cultural intervention to overcome our current lack of conceptual understanding, lack of social empathy, and lack of decision making to implement the solutions needed to mitigate catastrophe. No single government action, no corporate solutions or temporary changes in citizen behavior will resolve the challenges we face. The problems are interconnected and the path to find solutions represents the solution itself. A principle of evolution, and of social change, is that only the system can change the system. PACEM 2050 is the uncharacteristic social change strategy that changes the structure of how we share the realities of sustainability, social polarization, and approaching ecological tipping points.
