The Story

Skillfully written and absolutely captivating, this popular science book explores why humans, like many social animals, evolved to work together seamlessly—a stimulating read for fans of Sapiens and Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are? COOPERATION IS FOUND THROUGHOUT THE ANIMAL KINGDOM. Elephants cooperate. Seals cooperate. Meerkats, bees, and tuna cooperate. And human beings cooperate … sometimes. In a riveting exploration of the science on human cooperation, Dr. Jill Fernandes takes us on a journey through archaeology, paleoclimatology, evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and animal behavior to answer the question: What is the glue that binds humanity, and how can we use it for good? Cooperating Through Chaos is the story of us—humanity. It is the story of how our species evolved to live and work together in groups to maximize our chances of survival in chaotic environments. It is also the story of why we’ve stopped cooperating when we need to the most and, importantly, HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER NOW.
