DAVID LOYE
author of Rediscovering Darwin
David Loye is an internationally known psychologist, evolutionary systems scientist, author of thirty books including the national award winning The Healing of a Nation and Darwin's Lost Theory.
Originally a very young newsman in the Edward R. Murrow days, he became a scientist in his 40s, member of the Princeton and UCLA School of Medicine faculties, and co-founder of three international organizations for updating and expanding evolution studies: The General Evolution Research Group, The Society for Chaos Theory in Psychology and the Life Sciences, and with cultural evolution theorist and well-known author of The Chalice and the Blade, Riane Eisler, The Center for Partnership Studies (www.partnershipway.org).
Over the past 30 years he has been involved with scientists in many fields and countries in developing the cutting edge fields of chaos, complexity, integral, and evolutionary systems theory.
He is best known for his discovery of the long buried higher order love and moral sense rest of Darwin's theory versus the survival of the fittest, selfish gene, and now winner versus loser mindset driving our species and planet toward destruction.
His pioneering study of Darwin grew out of the development of his moral transformation theory along with three final books on Darwin. A notable fact about creativity at an advanced age is that he completed and published this book at 93, with two more underway.
His current bookRediscovering Darwin (Romanes Press 2018), is stripped down to the gripping story of the discovery of the long buried higher order rest of Darwin's theory of evolution.
After time to complete the next step for this work in progress, Reconstructing Darwin will add the notes, references, index, and wedding of both halves of Darwin's theory hailed by the remarkable body of scientists, thinkers and activists whose reviews open this book.
Further underway, Revolutionizing Darwin will report the results of Loye's ongoing development and testing of new ways of measuring and advancing human evolution.
He is a World War II veteran married to a Holocaust survivor—Riane Eisler, of whom he writes in several of his books. They live in California.

Here are a few of the many pre-publication reviews:
"...reveals what has been neglected with a passion and urgency not found in any other work ... scholarship of deep humanity and needful wisdom."
- Pioneering science historian
& award-winning Darwin scholar Robert J. Richards
"...makes the whole evolutionary theory hang together as...'Love-in-action.'
"
- Pioneering Integral evolution theorist Ken Wilber
"...Darwin the visionary, the moral thinker, not the mechanistic random-evolutionist as his followers have it."
- Pioneering general evolution theorist Ervin Laszlo
"...corrects an oversight in the history of science that has swerved the modern world off its track."
- Pioneering Chaos theorist Ralph Abraham
"...grips the reader's imagination as if glued to watching him put together a giant jig-saw puzzle showing the whole sweep of evolution."
- Pioneering brain scientist Paul MacLean
"If humankind is to survive the 21st century, it will need to deal far more effectively with the escalating threat of nuclear warfare, ecological devastation, and the other threats to its existence. There is no better road map."
- Pioneering psychologist Stanley Krippner
