Riane Eisler is a systems scientist, cultural historian, attorney, consultant, and speaker whose research has inspired scholars and social activists, showing how to construct a more equitable and less violent world based on partnership rather than domination. She is president of the Center for Partnership Studies (CPS), Editor in Chief of the Interdisciplinary Journal of Partnership Studies, and internationally known for her bestseller The Chalice and The Blade: Our History, Our Future, (Harper & Row, 1987), now in 57 U.S. printings and 27 foreign editions, plus books applying her research to evolution, religion, education, sexuality, economics, and politics. Eisler keynotes conferences worldwide, teaches online, consults on the partnership model, and pioneered the expansion of human rights to include the majority of humanity: women and children. 

Her The Real Wealth of Nations: Creating a Caring Economics (Berrett-Koehler, 2007) was hailed by Archbishop Desmond Tutu as “a template for the better world we have been so urgently seeking.” Transforming Interprofessional Partnerships on Healthcare (Sigma Theta Tau International, 2014) won national and international awards. Her recent Nurturing Our Humanity: How Domination and Partnership Shape Our Brains, Lives, and Future (co-authored with anthropologist Douglas Fry; Oxford University Press, 2019) shows how neuroscience supports her findings.
