rEvolution: How to Thrive in Crazy Times Feature

In rEvolution, best-selling author Bill Lucas puts forward suggestions on some of the ways we can all succeed in today's complex world. In the coming decades, we face significant global challenges in terms of climate change, biodiversity, food and water resources and violent extremism. 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 we can take at home, at school, in the workplace and in the wide community around us to ensure that we 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 our species.

The Resiliency Advantage: Master Change, Thrive Under Pressure, and Bounce Back from Setbacks Feature

Resiliency - the ability to adapt to life's changes and crises - is the key to a healthy, productive life. Unfortunately, it's all too easy to get bogged down by feelings of anger and helplessness. The Resiliency Advantage helps readers banish negative, self-defeating thoughts and break free from the roles of "victim" and "good child" while improving problem-solving skills, maintaining humor and optimism during rough times, and becoming both self-reliant and socially responsible. By mastering the five stages of development - sustaining health, energy, and positive feelings; handling challenges; achieving positive self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-concept; honing the skills and attributes of highly resilient people; and developing a talent for serendipity - readers learn to stand up to adversity, overcome obstacles, and meet life head on.
