My Last Three Books:

First Progressive Logic Distills the basic value principles underlying the political activity and ideologies of American Progressives. The analysis reveals the commonalities of the early Abolitionists through the anti-child labor and pro-public education movements and to contemporary reformers of the Criminal Justice System.

Second Internet Voting Now! (In Kindle, and on paper) Advocates the use of Internet voting as a means of further democratizing the way by which elections are conducted in the USA. Shows how elections can be organized so as to neutralize the power of wealthy campaign contributors, reduce partisan bickering and gridlock, and empower the middle class as never before in US history. All chapters (open access) at, http://ssrn.com/author=1053589

Third The Human Birth Defect Introduces the methodology of empathic science. Shows how empathy can be used to understand the mental worlds (including cognitive and affective) of other species, from the most ancient of sentient creatures, through the first true humans, to ourselves in the present. Provides an anatomical description of the human birth defect - a thin line of cortical tissue in the brain, which, unlike in animals, fails to fully perform its function of regulating contentment causing chemicals. The book shows how this defect has influenced human motivation from the emergence of the Human Genome to now. The World Culture humanity now lives in is a legacy of the genocide of Neanderthals in Europe, between 35,000 and 30,000 years ago. Ways to heal this defect are suggested.
