"Husband and wife team Heather Heying and Bret Weinstein bring their vast knowledge of evolutionary biology to bear on the problems that beset us. Wide-ranging and illuminating, A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century posits an intriguing, surprising, and profound view of human nature." --DR. JORDAN B. PETERSON, author of Beyond Order , 12 Rules for Life , and Maps of Meaning " A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century is the human story retold in beautiful language and moving metaphors. Heying and Weinstein are professorial in the best possible sense: they exemplify the intellectual humility, nuanced thinking, and love of learning that a great liberal arts education should nurture. Everyone who is raising or educating kids, or who wants to change social systems, should first read this book." --JONATHAN HAIDT, coauthor of The Coddling of the American Mind and author of The Righteous Mind "I have never read such a bold, well-researched, and succinct exploration of the puzzling predicament we find ourselves in. Anyone who wonders why the most comfortable society in history--our own--has such astronomical rates of depression, anxiety, and poor health will find abundant answers in A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century ." --SEBASTIAN JUNGER, author of The Perfect Storm , War , Tribe , and Freedom "Heather Heying and Bret Weinstein are the brilliant, irresistible professors every student dreams of having. In their hands, complex technical ideas become accessible--and exhilarating. A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century is based on serious science, but it reads like an adventure story." --CHRISTINA HOFF SOMMERS, philosopher, author, and host of The Factual Feminist " A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century has given me at least five evolutionary concepts that have become central to my way of viewing the world." --JAMIE WHEAL, executive director of the Flow Genome Project and coauthor of Stealing Fire "Bret and Heather are highly regarded evolutionary biologists, very clear thinkers and communicators, and as attested to by their notoriety from the madness that their school put them through, they value scientific truth over political correctness." --ROBERT SAPOLSKY, author of Behave and A Primate's Memoir, "Husband and wife team Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying bring their vast knowledge of evolutionary biology to bear on the problems that beset us. Wide-ranging and illuminating, A Hunter Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century posits an intriguing, surprising, and profound view of human nature." --Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, author of Beyond Order , 12 Rules for Life , and Maps of Meaning "This book guides readers through the most pressing puzzles of our time, developing their conceptual toolkit without being didactic. Razor sharp and fun to read, A Hunter Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century secures Weinstein and Heying's reputation as heroes who stand up not only for academic freedom, but also moral principles." --Jonathan Haidt, coauthor of The Coddling of the American Mind and The Righteous Mind "Bret and Heather are highly regarded evolutionary biologists, very clear thinkers and communicators, and as attested to by their notoriety from the madness that their school put them through, they value scientific truth over political correctness. I can't wait to read this book." --Robert Sapolsky, author of Behave and A Primate's Memoir "I have never read such a bold, well-researched, and succinct exploration of the puzzling predicament we find ourselves in. Anyone who wonders why the most comfortable society in history--our own--has such astronomical rates of depression, anxiety and poor health will find abundant answers in A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century ." --Sebastian Junger, author of The Perfect Storm , War , Tribe , and Freedom "Heather Heying and Bret Weinstein are the brilliant, irresistible professors every student dreams of having. In their hands, complex technical ideas become accessible--and exhilarating. A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide To The 21st Century is based on serious science, but it reads like an adventure story." --Christina Hoff Sommers, philosopher, Resident Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, and host of "The Factual Feminist" "Every once in a while, you come across an academic who gives you a few ideas that become central to your way of viewing the world. A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century has given me at least five working concepts from their deep dive into evolutionary biology that have permanently shifted the way I see human evolution and culture. I am forever grateful for their work and keen insights." --Jamie Wheal, Executive Director of The Flow Genome Project and coauthor of Stealing Fire

Synopsis
A provocative exploration of the tension between our evolutionary history and our modern woes--and what we can do about it. We are living through the most prosperous age in all of human history, yet we are listless, divided, and miserable. Wealth and comfort are unparalleled, but our political landscape is unmoored, and rates of suicide, loneliness, and chronic illness continue to skyrocket. How do we explain the gap between these truths? And how should we respond? For evolutionary biologists Heather Heying and Bret Weinstein, the cause of our troubles is clear: the accelerating rate of change in the modern world has outstripped the capacity of our brains and bodies to adapt. We evolved to live in clans, but today many people don't even know their neighbors' names. In our haste to discard outdated gender roles, we increasingly deny the flesh-and-blood realities of sex--and its ancient roots. The cognitive dissonance spawned by trying to live in a society we are not built for is killing us. In this book, Heying and Weinstein draw on decades of their work teaching in college classrooms and exploring Earth's most biodiverse ecosystems to confront today's pressing social ills--from widespread sleep deprivation and dangerous diets to damaging parenting styles and backward education practices. Asking the questions many modern people are afraid to ask, A Hunter-Gatherer's Guide to the 21st Century outlines a science-based worldview that will empower you to live a better, wiser life., We are living through the most prosperous age in all of human history, yet people are more listless, divided and miserable than ever. Wealth and comfort are unparalleled, and yet our political landscape grows ever more toxic, and rates of suicide, loneliness, and chronic illness continue to skyrocket. How do we explain the gap between these two truths? Heying and Weinstein cut through the politically fraught discourse surrounding issues like sex, gender, diet, parenting, sleep, education, and more to outline a provocative, science-based worldview that will empower you to live a better, wiser life.
