The present work is the second in a series constituting an extension of my doctoral thesis done at Stanford in the early 1970s. Like the earlier work, The Reciprocal Modular Brain in Economics and Politics, Shaping the Rational and Moral Basis ofOrganization, Exchange, and Choice (Plenum Publishing, 1999), it may also be considered to respond to the call for consilience by Edward O. Wilson. I agree with Wilson that there is a pressing need in the sciences today for the unification of the social with the natural sciences. I consider the present work to proceed from the perspective of behavioral ecology, specifically a subfield which I choose to call interpersonal behavioral ecology th Ecology, as a general field, has emerged in the last quarter of the 20 century as a major theme of concern as we have become increasingly aware that we must preserve the planet whose limited resources we share with all other earthly creatures. Interpersonal behavioral ecology, however, focuses not on the physical environment, but upon our social environment. It concerns our interpersonal behavioral interactions at all levels, from simple dyadic one-to-one personal interactions to our larger, even global, social, economic, and political interactions.

Defines the primary bioneurological or brain algorithm from the perspectives of physics and biology, and develops a second brain algorithm, setting out a model of behavior called the conflict systems neurobehavioral model. Examines the two brain algorithms as manifested in various theories of psychodynamics, and traces their expression as the foundation of western and eastern philosophy and mysticism, and in ethics, social theory, and language theory.

This text establishes a framework for consilience, the unification of the natural and social sciences. It seeks to identify and trace the organic brain algorithms which, when replicated in our neural architecture, shape our human thought, behaviour, and language.
