Lisa Reagan, Kindred’s editor, and Darcia Narvaez, Kindred World’s president, discuss the book that started it all, Neurobiology and the Development of Human Morality: Evolution, Culture, and Wisdom. First published in 2014, the book received the 2015 William James Book Award from Division I of the American Psychological Association as well as the Moral Development and Education SIG at the American Educational Research Association. In 2017, the book was chosen from among more than 360 total entries from 170 universities and 30 countries for the Vatican’s Expanded Reason Award.

Since 2019, Darcia and Lisa have worked to bring this book’s award-winning research and science to the public through the Evolved Nest Initiative and its many projects, including a trilogy of short films funded by the Vatican award monies. Kindred Magazine is a sister-initiative of the Evolved Nest Initiative. Both are collaborative, educational initiatives of the award-winning, American nonprofit, Kindred World.

In this celebratory podcast of Neurobiology and the Development of Human Morality’s 10th anniversary, Lisa and Darcia discuss the book’s challenges coming into publication, its unique transdisciplinary approach, and the ongoing work through the Evolved Nest Initiative and Kindred to unpack its far-reaching potential for our human family and planet’s return to our evolutionary pathway to wellbeing, our Evolved Nest.
