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.

Humanocentricism vs. Sustainability

The fundamental problem with the concept of Capitalism itself is that it’s a completely humanocentric economic system based on the trading of goods and services.  That means that goods and services are not economically valuable until they are traded.  (Or at least, they have the potential to be traded.)   A forest is valuable for any number of reasons, beginning with the service it provides of turning carbon dioxide into oxygen.  But nothing needs to be traded from one person to another to make that happen.  That renders a healthy forest invisible to the Capitalist economic system.  Until someone decides to cut it down, that is.

Currently, the impact humanity is having on the global environment is about 20% more than the world can sustain.  That means that all of the resources in the world are needed by somebody—including our descendants who haven’t been born yet, who need them to keep the global environment working.   Every single thing in the world is valuable for something, because it’s a part of some natural cycle of the environment.  If we change our economic system sufficiently to make it recognize everything in the world as inherently valuable, we would no longer have a Capitalist economic system.  We would have a Use-Value economic system.

The economy is a product of the environment.  In the 21st century, humanity’s economic relationship to the global environment is going to change forever.  The only choice we have in the matter is how it’s going to change.

Politics is a product of economics.  Our economic relationship to the environment changing forever in this century is necessarily going to require—or cause—our political systems to change forever.   The anti-Capitalist movement is a revolution now.  But soon enough, it will be a tidal wave.

Unfortunately, a revolutionary anti-Capitalist tidal wave would be a disaster if nobody figures out how to win the revolution.   At the very best it’ll turn into, “They’ve got the guns but we’ve got the numbers,” and the global revolution will turn into a global riot.  And once all the office buildings in the world are burning, what do we do then?  In the post-revolutionary society, whose political ideology do we use to solve the problems the Capitalists were causing?

Solving global problems will depend on people all over the world figuring out how to solve their local problems and working together to solve global problems.  That depends on solving local problems in ways that all the solutions will fit together and make solving global problems possible.   That depends on getting information to people who need it, and on fighting off the Capitalists far enough to give people the space they need to start solving their local problems.

Anyone who learns what I know can act as the intellectual military of the anti-Capitalist revolution.   You can mount a sustained, full frontal assault on Capitalism easily, because you have the laws of physics on your side.  In order for the Capitalists to win, they have to hide physical reality from everyone.  They’re doing a good job of that in America at the moment.  They can put advertizements on TV, politicians can make a lot of empty promises, they can corrupt the public school system to try to prevent anyone from learning what’s going wrong with the world, and they can use our police and our military to try to make everyone accept the Capitalist version of the truth at gunpoint.  All you need to fight against all of that are some books you can check out from your local public library.  If they try to pit their political system against fundamental laws of the universe, the universe is going to win in the end.

In the 22nd century, we will not have a Capitalist economy.  The question is:  Will we still have a civilization?

If Capitalism destroys itself without anyone figuring out a new economic system to replace it with, Capitalism will be replaced by regional warlordism, which is the kind of economy people always end up with when more complicated economies break down for good.  If Hurricane Katrina happened all over the world, our food distribution infrastructures would all break down, just like they did in New Orleans.  Then we’d have a world full of hungry people with guns.  A human economic system is “how people get the things they need to live”.   In a world full of hungry people with guns, the ones who get the most to eat will be the ones with the most guns.  And what do you call that besides regional warlordism?
