The underlying assumption is that self-interest and competition is not only natural and unavoidable, but actually desirable and necessary for any kind of ‘progress’ or ‘improvement’. This assumption drives policies of unlimited growth and unsustainable exploitation that are catastrophically damaging to us as individuals, to our global community, and to other living things and the biosphere. But now a new explanatory framework for creative adaptation in biological systems is emerging which turns the underlying assumption on its head. It shows what the ancient wisdom traditions knew all along – that ‘compassionate connection’ (love) is more creative than ‘survival of the fittest’ (self-interest). This new view of the natural world offers an antidote to competition-based mindsets and provides a new scientific foundation for these ancient spiritual wisdoms. </span></span></h4>

His research has developed an extensive unification of evolutionary theory and learning theory which he uses to address big questions about life, learning, evolution, cognition and love. His current work – explored in this course – uses this scientific foundation to unify opposing worldviews and support a more harmonious and compassionate way of life for individuals, the global community and the biosphere.
