Dear friends,
I’m proud to share that my new book Energy First is now published. It presents a new systems model: cooperation is not just behavior or kindness — it is the operating system of life.
At its heart, the book argues:
“Cooperation is not kindness. It is structure. It is the operating system of life – a seven-step helix that powers living systems from cells to societies.”
What you’ll find inside
-
⚡ Energy as the driver of all living systems.
-
🤝 Cooperation as structure, from cells + mitochondria to humans + teams to societies + global systems.
-
🔄 The TPOCo cycle, a seven-step helix that shows how pooled energy, aligned roles, and shared outcomes scale life forward.
-
🌍 Practical insights: how the same principle can guide science, teamwork, and everyday life.
Why this matters
Life runs on energy. Cooperation is how it gets it.
Once you see this structure, you can use it to explain why systems thrive or fail — from biology to human organizations, from AI alignment to global sustainability.
