Notes
- Mental models + genes determine how you think
- Whatever is sacred to you - you go in denial on that
- Understanding of evolution is complete once we integrate that with society (policy). That means biology + policy. Evolutionary thinking is relevant to policy
- Evolution turned selfish as a trend of 20th century. What caused it? People used to talk about society. Individualism trumped the social organism.
- Groups become externally cooperative, but not internally.
- Question of scale - we will not get true cooperation until we include all of ecology. Biosphere.
- Water strider - females like docile partners, and choose them - if they are free to move between male types into different pools
- Inclusive fitness theory - [1]
- Lynn Margulis - cells evolved as communities from bacteria, not as individuals. People are the newest twist. People suppressed disruptive individuals, usually.
- Policy should be a branch of evolutionary biology
