Phil. in biology from the University of Oxford in 2001 and a Ph.D. in political science from the University of Geneva in 2004. Drawing on both disciplines, he researches and writes on the role of human biology and evolution in understanding the behaviour of individuals, groups, organizations, and states. Johnson held several post-doctoral fellowships in the United States prior to being hired at Edinburgh. He was a National Security Fellow at the Olin Institute for Strategic Studies at Harvard University 2002-2003, a Science Fellow at the Center for International Security and Cooperation at Stanford University 2003-2004, a visiting Fellow in the Global Fellows Program of the International Institute at the University of California, Los Angeles 2004-2006, and a Fellow in the Society of Fellows at Princeton University, 2004–2007, where he was also a lecturer at Princeton’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. He was also a (Society in Science ) Branco Weiss Fellow from 2004-2009. In addition to over forty articles published in academic journals and edited books, he is the author of two books. "Overconfidence and War: The Havoc and Glory of Positive Illusions" (Harvard University Press, 2004), argues that the widespread human tendency to maintain overly positive images of ourselves, of our control over events, and of the future (positive illusions), play a key role in the causes of war. "Failing to Win: Perceptions of Victory and Defeat in International Politics" (Harvard University Press, 2006), with (Dominic Tierney ), explores how common psychological biases generate powerful misconceptions about the success and failure of political events, altering the lessons that people learn from history. "Failing to Win" won the 2006 Best Book Award from the International Studies Association. ==Selected bibliography== Johnson, Dominic DP, and James H. Fowler. "The evolution of overconfidence."
