Bloom has spent decades dismantling conventional wisdom—about evolution, culture, power, creativity, and the hidden systems that quietly shape human behavior. He’s not interested in trends or

Howard Bloom has built a career doing what most thinkers avoid—crossing lines. Not political ones. Intellectual ones. Science into culture. Biology into history. Rock music into evolutionary theory. While most writers specialize, Bloom synthesizes, pulling patterns from places that aren’t supposed to touch and insisting they belong in the same conversation. Before he became an
On Monday December 8th the Oxford University Press Journal SLEEP Advances made a startling claim: that, as one headline put it, getting less than seven hours of sleep is linked to shorter life expectancy.

The big question in astrophysics right now is whether our solar system has been penetrated by a giant spaceship. A spaceship from a distant solar system. And from a distant civilization. A spaceship that deliberately cruised past three separate planets, then hid behind the sun. Why swing behind the sun? Says Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb, to release
This is not the same world it was on January 20, 2025. Things we are accustomed to are being yanked away. And things we were taught to believe are true are now being called false. Plus some of the things we’re being told are not true at all. The trend in governance is turning upside down. For 90 years,
The Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur arrived at sundown on October 1st. It’s the holiest day of the Jewish year. But what in the world is Yom Kippur? It’s the day of atonement.

We are witnessing an attempt to destroy America’s constitutional democracy. Something has happened that is very useful to the constitution destroyers: the murder on September 15th in Utah of high profile MAGA promoter Charlie Kirk, leader of the movement Turning Point USA.

We may be closer to World War Three than we have been in 42 years. World wars happen when giant alliances face off against each other, with each nation pledged to come to the defense of the other. World War I happened when there were two giant alliances facing off against each other. Those alliances had
On September 11th, 2001, author Howard Bloom, the man Britain’s Channel 4 TV calls the Einstein, Newton, Darwin and Freud of the 21st century, stood on the roof of his brownstone in Park Slope, Brooklyn, and watched as the World Trade Center burned. The experience left his gut churning with powerful emotions for which he had no
The Trump, Zelensky, and Putin relationship is in play and changing hour by hour. The President of the USA met with Vladimir Putin Friday, August 15th, in Alaska.

Here’s the question. Has Vladimir Putin been playing Donald Trump, stringing him along, and making a fool out of him. You be the judge. On June 14th, President Trump had a phone call with Russia’s President Putin. When it was over, Trump was optimistic about achieving peace. To show Russia’s willingness to negotiate, President Trump
Why can’t there be world peace? Because every great nation wants to be on top. That means China, Russia, and the USA are battling to be the number one nation on earth. Why? Because biology has built something strange into us: the pecking order, the social totem pole, the ladder of status, what scientists call the “dominance hierarchy.” And

“We must chop off Trump’s hand, slit Netanyahu’s throat, [and] annihilate Israel.” Gen. Ebrahim Jabbari, senior advisor to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps In the past week, the Middle East has been transformed dramatically. Here’s how.

To many of us Americans, it feels as if the world has been turned upside down. Why? First of all, we are torn between two radically different truths, the MAGA truth and the Democrat truth.
