Applying the rigour of the medical method—history, examination, and diagnosis—to humanity's collective trajectory, The Theory of Us offers a provocative analysis of our species’ future and introduces the Civilisational Early Warning Score (C-EWS) to actively monitor our prognosis.

Drawing on evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and macro-history, the text explores how our societal patterns are shaped by deep-seated genetic imperatives. In a largely deterministic universe, it examines how we can navigate systemic threats by understanding our inherent biological drivers. Confronting the stark realities of our evolutionary inheritance, the work provides a structural lens through which to assess our ultimate path in a world pursued by artificial intelligence.

Substantively supported by the UK medical community, this work has received peer feedback from nine NHS Consultants and a Professor, who highlight its clinical grounding and its urgent, accessible framework for understanding human nature today.
