This book proposes that the work of Zecharia Sitchin and others is correct, by stating that "gods" visited us from elsewhere in the remote past. Using their own genes, they genetically altered an inferior version of humankind for their own purposes and improved our stock. Humankind, with half-Terran and half-alien genes, has been placed on an accelerated evolutionary path. We have begun to eagerly emerge from racial adolescence as a direct result of this tampering. Freer describes what's in store for us as this dawning genetic enlightenment reveals the new human and racial maturity of a new...

Our species has amassed unprecedented knowledge of nature, which we have tried to use to seize control of life and bend the planet to our will.

In the evolution of antibiotic resistance, the power of natural selection to create biodiversity, and even the surprising life of the London Underground, Dunn finds laws of life that no human activity can annul.

Humans, it turns out, are intrinsically wired to seek short-term success at the expense of long-term prosperity. Kristian Rönn, an entrepreneur formerly affiliated with the University of Oxford’s Future of Humanity Institute, calls these deeply rooted impulses “Darwinian demons.” These forces, a by-product of natural selection, can lead us to act in shortsighted ways that harm others—and even imperil our survival as a species. If this evolutionary glitch is left unchecked, the consequences will grow in magnitude as the power of technology accelerates.

Our Tribal Future explores a central paradox of our species: how altruism, community, kindness, and genocide are all driven by the same core adaptation.
