About the Book

NOUS: The Common Sense of Humanity By Derwin Antione Pritchett II What if humanity's survival depends on something as simple-and as elusive-as common sense? While democracy crumbles under our feet and the planet burns, philosopher Antione Pritchett II delivers a searing manifesto: unite behind a shared understanding of reality, or face extinction. Nous presents the first systematic attempt to codify the "common sense" that should bind all humans together-a framework of 54 axioms spanning everything from dancing atoms to the vast machinery of our cosmos. Drawing from Aristotelian ethics, Stoic philosophy, and modern neuroscience, Pritchett II constructs what he calls "Nousian Ethics"-a philosophical GPS for souls lost in the wilderness of late-stage capitalism. Through the transformative lens of emergence, he shows how basic truths about physics, biology, and human psychology give rise to moral imperatives that transcend cultural and ideological boundaries. This isn't an abstract treatise; it is pragmatic and purposive. Pritchett II connects his framework directly to today's most pressing crises, including artificial intelligence, economic inequality and the genocide in Palestine. He argues with passionate conviction that without a shared foundation of truth-a genuine "common sense of humanity"-we cannot hope to solve problems that require collective action on a global scale. Bold, provocative, and urgently relevant, Nous challenges readers to examine their fundamental beliefs about reality and morality. Complete with an "Agreeability Doctrine" for honest self-examination and a "Binding Covenant" for those ready to act on their convictions, this book is both intellectual reckoning and revolutionary blueprint. The question isn't whether you'll agree with everything Pritchett II proposes. The question is whether we have any future at all if we can't share a sense of what's true, what's right, and what's at stake- before we lose what humanity we have left. For readers of Sam Harris, Yuval Noah Harari, -and anyone calling themselves a human being.
