Abstract

Heidi Bruce, Managing Editor of the Interdisciplinary Journal of Partnership Studies, interviews the founder of the Center for Partnership Studies, Riane Eisler. Our focus is Nurturing Our Humanity: How Domination and Partnership Shape Our Brains, Lives, and Future, Eisler’s book co-authored with Douglas P. Fry, recently published by Oxford University Press. In the book, the authors provide a new analytical tool, the biocultural partnership-domination lens, which integrates knowledge to solve personal, social, economic, and environmental problems.
