The Costa Report
Posted on Nov 19th, 2010
Rebecca Costa is an American sociobiologist who offers a genetic explanation for current events, emerging trends and individual behavior. A thought-leader and provocative new voice in the mold of Thomas Friedman, Malcolm Gladwell and Jared Diamond, Costa traces everything from terrorism, debt, epidemic obesity, and upheaval in the Middle East to evolutionary imperatives.
Retiring at the zenith of her career in Silicon Valley, Costa spent six years researching and writing The Watchman’s Rattle: A Radical New Theory of Collapse. In her book, Costa explains how the principles governing evolution cause and provide a solution for global gridlock. When asked why the book has special significance today, Costa claims, “Every person I know, rich or poor, educated or not, wants to know why our government gets more in debt, our air and water more polluted, our jails more crowded, our security more tenuous and our children more violent. We appear to have lost our ability to solve our problems. The Watchman’s Rattle offers a genetic explanation for paralysis, and prescribes a way out.”
The success of Costa’s first book led to a weekly radio program in 2010 calledThe Costa Report™. The Costa Report is nationally syndicated by the Business TalkRadio Network and VoiceAmerica and is currently one of the fastest growing radio programs on the West Coast.
Listen to Rebecca Costa's interview with Wallace J. Nichols, her first of many interviews with a long list of leading public thinkers.
