A blueprint for a better future that offers a unified theory of human behavior, culture, and society. Playing on the phrase “a theory of everything” from physics, Michael Muthukrishna’s ambitious, original, and deeply hopeful book A Theory of Everyone draws on the most recent research from across the sciences, humanities, and the emerging field of cultural evolution to paint a panoramic picture of who we are and what exactly makes human beings different from all other forms of life on the planet. Muthukrishna argues that it is our unique ability to create culture, a shared body of knowledge, skills, and experience passed on from generation to generation, that has enabled our current dominance. But it is only by understanding and applying the laws of life—the need for energy, innovation, cooperation, and evolution—that we can solve the practical and existential challenges we face as a species. A Theory of Everyone attempts to provide solutions for the most pressing problems of our collective future, such as polarization, inequality, the “great stagnation” in productivity, and the energy crisis. Casting a bold and wide net, Muthukrishna’s book is a must-read for anyone interested in a better future for ourselves and for generations to come.

OVER 300,000 COPIES IN PRINT, WITH A NEW CHAPTER ON THE 2018 TAX CUTS. There's a massive freight train bearing down on the average American investor, and it's coming in the form of higher taxes. The United States Government has made trillions of dollars in unfunded promises for programs like Social Security and Medicare—and the only way to deliver on these promises is to raise taxes. Some experts have even suggested that tax rates will need to double, just to keep our country solvent. Unfortunately, if you're like most Americans, you've saved the majority of your retirement assets in tax-deferred vehicles like 401(k)s and IRAs. If tax rates go up, how much of your hard-earned money will you really get to keep? In The Power of Zero, McKnight provides a concise, step-by-step roadmap on how to get to the 0% tax bracket by the time you retire, effectively eliminating tax rate risk from your retirement picture. Now, in this expanded edition, McKnight has updated the book with a new chapter on the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, showing readers how to navigate the new tax law, and how they can extend the life of their retirement savings by taking advantage of it now. The day of reckoning is fast approaching. Are you ready to do what it takes to experience the power of zero?

Tired of ten pound math textbooks? Tired of math textbooks with 700 to 1,000 pages? Tired of massive student failure in gatekeeper math courses like Algebra I? Tired of math phobic students (and their parents) exclaiming, "I hate math!"? Maybe it is time to try a different curriculum. Math For Everyone is a curriculum designed to promote massive student (and teacher) math success. Each year's content in the six math courses (7th Grade Math, Algebra I, Geometry I, Algebra II, Math Analysis and Calculus) is boiled down into its essential vocabulary and 5-7 key concepts with particular attention paid to clarity and articulation between courses. Assessment includes old favorites as well as authentic assessment with rubrics and grading advice included. No text is longer than 80 pages as the 5-7 key concepts can be amply demonstrated and practiced in this amount of space. Math For Everyone is not only great for new math teachers and struggling math students, but great for everyone. Nathaniel Max Rock is an educator since 2001 and the author of more than a dozen education books. He has taught the following courses: 7th Grade Math, Algebra I, Geometry I, Algebra II, Math Analysis, Calculus, as well as California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) Prep Classes, AVID Elective (9th & 10th grade), and Carnegie Computer classes.
