    The Prince of Evolution is the evolutionary reframing of one of the most important and 
controversial political texts in history. It reframes Machiavelli’s The Prince as a text expressing a revolutionary political theory that expresses an evolutionary ‘best practice’ framework for political competition. 
 
By applying the two patterns of evolution, natural and artificial, discovered by Charles Darwin and David R. Wood. In doing so it reveals new insights and value to be derived from Machiavelli’s original text. Most importantly, by providing an evolutionary framework for every human
 relationship that has ever existed, and reframes Machiavelli, the man, to be just as human as you or I.
 
The Prince of Evolution is a groundbreaking work that will disrupt the entire field of political 
science. And the way we all look at organizations, communities, and ourselves.
