About this ebook
We have reached a turning point in our development as a species. In the coming decades we face significant global challenges in terms of climate change, biodiversity, food and water resources and violent extremism. At the local level, these seem like crazy times, with the speed of change accelerating faster than ever. In rEvolution, best-selling author Bill Lucas suggests some of the ways we can all succeed in today's complex world. 150 years after Charles Darwin invented the concept of natural selection, Bill argues that the rules of evolution are changing. To thrive in our current crazy world we need a new kind of "mind-ware". Specifically we need to develop our adaptive intelligence. Drawing on new and emerging sciences and using approaches previously applied in other domains, this book describes some of the practical steps you can take at home, at school, in the workplace and in the wider community to ensure that you can constantly adapt to new circumstances. Bill's analysis, optimism and suggestions for practical learning make this an essential addition to the book shelf of all thoughtful questioning members of the species!

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5There is nothing whatsoever to object to in this genial run-through of some modest techniques for being, thinking, adapting, and interacting. But at the same time, there's nothing to suggest that the author is an original thinker. You can hardly help yourself skimming and dipping. The tone is always agreeable, getting a little excitable at times, but ultimately rather banal. Sample bromide: "if we want to thrive in crazy times, we may like to get better at imagining, noticing, choosing, synthesising and, perhaps most fundamentally, unlearning." Sample insight: "The resurgence of the 'coffee house on the high street over the last decade has facilitated social networking by providing hospitable spaces and good coffee."The book was recommended by the head of the organisation where I work, which leaves me reassessing my take on her rather than on life.
