What if some of the most puzzling changes in modern society are not merely cultural but evolutionary?

Of late, several unique issues swirl around our communal consciousness. Young people seem increasingly uncertain about once familiar life trajectories. Youth anxiety and depression have become subjects of intense concern. Birth rates are declining across much of the industrialized world, while questions surrounding sexuality, reproduction, gender, and even declining testosterone levels have become increasingly difficult to ignore. Smartphones and social media are often offered as convenient explanations. But what if we are looking in the wrong place? In Predator Factor, I posit a comprehensive and admittedly unexpected rationale for what we are observing: evolution itself. The book offers a counterintuitive explanation for several of the social trends that increasingly beg for understanding. Smartphones may be the lowest hanging fruit of blame for youthful ennui, but I suggest that something deeper is taking place.
