If you are interested in buying one or more of my books, thank you! I have provided links to online booksellers. You also have the option with Old Dog, Stones, and Civilization Heresies to purchase through the publisher’s website.
My net proceeds for Stones will go to the Indiana University Simon Cancer Center.


Civilization Heresies is a collection of memoir-grounded essays, reflections, and prose poems that explore the contradictions between life in modern civilization and our wild human nature, and emphasize the need to preserve and nurture our authentic human connection with the natural world.

Set against the backdrop of an aging psychology professor’s struggle with testicular cancer, Stones: Meditations on Human Authenticity is a lyrical and intellectually muscular exploration of the violent disconnect between our evolved human nature and our civilized reality.

Civilization is not our natural habitat! Our most pressing social, environmental, and geopolitical challenges are due, at least in part, to this simple fact. Born Expecting the Pleistocene assembles empirical findings from psychology into a unique perspective on the mismatch between our genetic predispositions and the demands of life in global industrial civilization.

Anarchist by Design makes the bold claim that anarchy—society founded on organic and direct relations with others, unmediated by artificial systems of power and authority—is the natural and preferred social state for human beings.
