The author of “The Origin of Politics: How Evolution and Ideology Shape the Fate of Nations” joins this episode to discuss how evolution and ideology impacts a nation. Nicholas Wade, a retired Science and Health Editor of the New York Times explains how genetics play a much greater role in society and politics than what is both taught and assumed. He explains that while some useful modification can be done, when culture goes too far, society can get into trouble. Family is a basic unit of society and we discuss the issues facing that unit today.
