Books:

"To Govern Evolution: Further Adventures of the Political Animal" by Walter Truett Anderson.

The message of this excellent book by Walter Truett Anderson is that the human species is gaining increasing control of its own evolution.  It discusses the signs of this haphazard transition to evolutionary governance, and appeals to the need to develop a world social and political concept to consciously and responsibly embrace and support this governance.
