About this listen

Tribalism has made politics so awful I was forced to write a book about it. Well, fine. Fine.

This book explores the evolutionary roots of loving our team and hating the enemy team, and why groupish caveman instincts linger in our minds today. It answers: If tribalism is hardwired into us, what changed in the last twenty years? How did partisanship get so loud, toxic, and obnoxious, and ruin last Thanksgiving? Finally, it says what we can do about it as individuals navigating relationships, and as society as a whole.

"Tribalism is Dumb" will make you less flummoxed by partisanship, political loudmouths, and dogmatic pundits. It will make you taller, slimmer, and more attractive to everyone you could legally hit on. And it will make you better equipped to navigate tribalism in the wild.

Heaton' humour aids in making what is a heavy topic concerning human development, systems analysis, and incentive structures for behavior actually a fun read/listen. If you feel particularly alienated from loved ones after these eight years of partisanship, this book might help you to see the good person behind a party affiliation you don't care for.

Funny, smart, and aimed at bridging gaps
