Bankrolling Evolution: A Scientific Guide to Global Recovery from the Disaster of the Bush Years. Using the new approach of evolutionary action science foreshadowed by the moral sensitivity of Darwin’s long ignored completion for his theory of evolution, this first book focuses on four questions that now hammer at Americans and the rest of the world: What happened to us? How and why did it happen? What can we do about it? How do we prevent it from ever happening again?

Measuring Evolution.  An exciting report of the development of a new measure of local, national, and global health and wellbeing based on a reconstruction of Darwin’s completed theory and the findings of thousands of modern scientists that corroborate it. Designed to provide a guide to more effective action for bettering our world, the Global Sounding monitors the “new Darwinian” full range for evolution — from cosmic, chemical, and biological, to cultural, moral, and spiritual evolution.

Darwin’s Lost Theory. This is the core book uncovering Darwin’s revolutionary, yet strangely ignored, “second half” for his theory of evolution. It tells of how Darwin's observations of the primacy of mutual aid, education, love, and moral sensitivity for human evolution were "buried in plain sight" during 100 years of our fixation on “survival of the fittest” and "selfish genes" — even though Darwin specifically insisted “other agencies” are more important at our level of evolution. It shows how recognition of this “lost” Darwinian theory could have changed the 20th century for the better — and can still help us save the 21st century.

Darwin on Love. Long scattered throughout Darwin’s writings are ninety five stories of the love and sex life of an intriguing range of animals. Through the charm and delight of Darwin’s own love story — and the insights and humor of these ninety five stories of love and sex for the first time brought together here — this book provides an engaging introduction to the story and theory of Darwin for readers of all ages.

The Derailing of Evolution. Detailing the dramatic, century-long, battle of progressive scientists against the distortion of Darwin’s theory, this book reveals the astonishing power of how our minds can be seized by an over-riding paradigm that — with the best intentions of even the brightest of minds — can blindly drive us toward destruction. It underlines the importance of a new Darwinian model combining both parts of Darwin’s original vision of what drives us ahead, checks us in place, or drives us backward in evolution.

Telling the New Story.  The first of a series on a new updating and expansion for the science and story of evolution by innovative educators. From grade school through graduate studies — with crucial attention to the media—the series will provide teacher’s guides and curricula designed to accelerate a shift in education from the fixation on old model Darwinism to the new science and story of “a place for every one of us in evolution.”
