President Obama said we’re going to restore science to its rightful place and transform our schools and universities to meet the demands of a new age. Scientists have been hard at work on that for 40 years. It doesn’t mean longer school days and more homework; it means a whole new approach to science and education. Find out how to get that education yourself with high school level books that are available at mainstream bookstores. This is an introduction to every other book on this site. Available in booklet and audio CD.


Evolutionary psychology is a biological approach to psychology that starts with human evolution. It’s the study of universal traits of humanity and of the origins of differences among groups. This is the most direct route to Peace on Earth. By discouraging people from learning about evolution, Christian fundamentalists are preventing Peace on Earth from happening. Available in book and two audio CD set.


The anti-globalization revolution is a struggle against the globalization of Capitalism. No matter what name it goes by, the concentration of resources among a small group of people results in a concentration of decision-making power. People are inherently self-interested, which means centralized decision making power can never be trusted. These and all the other main points of the anti-Capitalist revolution have been proven scientifically, while the idea that Capitalism can ever lead to a just or sustainable society is founded on lies and superstitions. Available in book and free audio download, and in condensed form in booklet and audio CD.


In the evolution versus intelligent design debate, the Christian fundamentalists had an advantage in that the Bible is a story of the world and a reference book to life, while the scientists don’t have anything similar. So this three-volume set is a scientific story of the world and reference book to life. Volume 1 is a philosophical approach to evolution and human psychology, which brings together major discoveries scientists have made into the origins of religion, the history of world civilization, the origins of emotions, social organization, learning, child development, and male/female relations. That scientific foundation creates a solid foundation for a humanistic philosophy of life, death, metaphysics, and choices we have for the future. Available in book and free audio book.


The philosophical foundation of Volume 1 is so solid that by changing a few words I switch to a scientific approach in Volume 2. That’s an easier foundation to use to build up to complicated forms of human behavior, like political, economic, and environmental systems. Available in book and free audio download.


Now that I’ve shown how the psychology of individual people turns into political, economic, and environmental systems, in Volume 3 I use that as a common ground to fit together the goals of progressive movements and ideologies. That includes the anti-Capitalist, anti-corporate, anti-border, anti-nuclear, peace, environmental, animal rights, and feminist movements, Atheism, progressive religion, Indigenous Decolonization, Socialism, Communism, and Anarchism. Available in book and free audio download.


The content of Planetary Biology and the Anti-Capitalist Revolution has been established so thoroughly that you can learn how the global environment and evolutionary psychology work with cycles you can see happening in a garden. That means all the third-world farmers who are being driven off their land by globalization can learn planetary biology as easily as anyone else. And that means they can prove that college educated politicians have no excuse for not knowing that Capitalism isn’t environmentally sustainable and will lead to people fighting over resources. The global educational feudal system ends here. Available in book and free audio download, and the text is posted in its entirety on this site.


This is a rigorous academic version of the connections between evolutionary psychology and the theatrical directing style developed by Constatin Stanislavski, and how I have used them to draw connections among the observations about life different groups of people have made. That is followed by a working class activist perspective on science and the education system in America. Beware, because this is college level evolutionary psychology, followed by my first hand account of what it’s like to have been condemned by the education system to live in a neighborhood where racial hate crimes are a fact of life. Available in book only.


This is an expanded version of Planetary Biology and the Anti-Capitalist Revolution, with 10 additional chapters on topics specific to the Anarchist movement. That includes classist attitudes by the middle class majority, and the misguided rejection of science. This is written for Anarchists specifically, so if you don’t have any experience in the Anarchist movement, you won’t be able to keep up with the terminology and obscure references. If you are an Anarchist, beware, because I grew up in Down East Maine, and I wrote this in my native dialect. If you middle class radicals can’t wrap your brains around the fact that the speaking habits of sailors and lumberjacks aren’t part of the system of oppression like you accuse them of being, you don’t have a global working class revolution. Available in book only until I can find time to finish the audio recording.

Chapter 2: Methodology/ The Statistics of Individuality:

The most obvious question in how to go about looking for a universal formula for humanity is:  Can individuals be given fair consideration categorically?  My answer:  Yes, absolutely.  I know people are all different, but we do have things in common, so we do have somewhere to start.  We all belong to the same species, we all breathe the same air, and we all live on the same planet.  Just look at all those important things we have in common!

The next question is:  How can I safely draw conclusions categorically without stereotyping anyone and thereby corrupting my conclusions?  Obviously it is true that everyone is different, so it would be a mistake to stereotype people and conclude that all people behave a certain way because some, many, or most people behave that way.  To do that, I can use statistics.

Now the obvious question becomes:  How can I reduce everyone in the world to a statistic without compromising anyone’s individuality?  The obvious answer is:  I can only use statistics that apply to exactly 100% of people.  When a statistic applies to 100% of people—and by that I don’t mean almost 100% of people—individuality becomes irrelevant because that statistic is not affected by, and does not affect, individuality.

Another good question to ask is:  Are there any other ways I can use statistics?  The answer to that is:  Yes—very carefully.  Since this isn’t a mathematical formula in the literal numerical sense, I can’t depend on literal numbers for anything.  I can, however, look at relationships between numbers and trends in groups of numbers.  Unless any of those numbers are a constant 100% I can’t use them as conclusions, but I can use them to find a direction in which to look for conclusions.

Another way I can use statistics is by looking at things that could potentially affect exactly 100% of people.  If something doesn’t seem to affect 100% of people, that doesn’t mean that it doesn’t affect 100% of people, that only means that it might not affect 100% of people.  It might affect 100% of people and just isn’t affecting some of them noticeably, or it might be affecting 100% of people but for some people those effects are being offset by some other factor.
