Dr. J. Scott Turner, a physiologist who has contributed extensively to our understanding of collective intelligence, discusses rewriting Darwin's theory with a focus on epigenetics, collective intelligence, and purpose. Topics include the lung-like structure of termite mounds, regulation of underground nests, limitations of Darwinism, complex interactions within termite colonies, humans as organelles in the superorganism, influence of grant money on scientific research, and reification in science.
