    Imagine you could wave a magic wand to make one thing disappear from the world: extreme poverty or extreme wealth. Which would you choose? A no-brainer, right? Apparently not for everyone. My new essay in on the obsession with .

    Het beschimpen van een religie is een normaal recht in de seculiere, verlichte democratie. Wie daar niet tegen kan, mag terug naar de schoolbanken. Ik trek grote ogen bij de weifelende reacties in Frankrijk.

  5. My piece on inequality for ends with an invitation to donate to highly effective charities like , which fight poverty through unconditional cash transfers. It sounds simple, but evidence shows it really works.

  7. Fyi, you are being criticized in this piece. Yes, we should raise taxes on billionaires, but taxes are a means to a end, not an end in itself. To paraphrase Rutger: "Poverty, hunger and disease, and all the rest is bullshit". :-)

    For decades the world was making progress against undernourishment. This has ended and hunger is on the rise. A good report by the FAO on a very bad development

    There is no clearer case of a technology in which we could and should take the lead, but in which we are and will be held back if we do not break free from the EU approach. My speech in the Lords today about genome editing:

    Are gender differences in toy preference real, and if so, are they (partly) innate? Intriguing evidence from macaques: boys prefer vehicles over plush toys, girls the reverse. So choices parallel those of human children, without explicit socialization.

    Sterk staaltje academische 'turf protection' van deze historici: Harari's teleologische speculaties en denkfouten worden geduld, want hij is historicus (dus één van hen), maar Pinkers zorgvuldige empirie wordt als "onzin" weggezet, want hij is "indringer".

    Males have to strike a balance between showing off enough to attract female attention, but not showing off so much that it attracts other males' aggression. Oh, this is about bowerbirds decorating their bowers, by the way.

    Finally found 's new book on cultural evolution in my mailbox, after a long delay. Alberto is a helluva smart guy, as I'm sure this book will demonstrate (again). Of course, given the topic of the book, I had to spread the word online first.
