The Library of Alexandria
Newsletter

Twice a week, one email that explains how your mind works, and how to use it in your own life. Free.

✦
I

How your mind works

The systems behind your decisions, habits, fears, and drives. Explained directly, without the usual self help fog.

II

Human nature

Why people do what they do. Status, attraction, group behavior, deception, loyalty.

III

Evolutionary psychology

Your brain was built for a world that no longer exists. That single fact explains more of your behavior than anything else.

IV

Ancient knowledge

What the oldest thinkers understood about the mind, and where modern research proves them right.

V

The automatisms of behavior

The patterns that run on their own: procrastination, self sabotage, social fear, comfort seeking. And where the off switch sits.

Every topic comes with one thing: how to use it for your own life.
