Raleigh, M. J.; Washburn, S. L. – Impact of Science on Society, 1973
The study of origin and evolution of man gives new perspective for understanding his behavior. Physical behaviors such as walking and throwing are results of biological evolution which has not kept pace with sociocultural evolution. Irrational decisions by man in social, cultural, and political fields are results of this brain activity. (PS)

Chance, Michael R. A. – Impact of Science on Society, 1973
Direct observations of animal behaviors can provide clues to understanding human behavior. By such observations of animals close to man, certain behavior patterns have been established. Man's behavior in social and cultural fields is an adaptation of these behavior patterns. (PS)

Ribiere, Germaine Anne – Impact of Science on Society, 1973
The human body provides a medium for man's expression of existence in intellectual, emotional, religious, and social fields. The child starts learning about his body after birth and becomes fully aware of it when he reaches maturity. The fully matured body enables man to carry on dialogue with himself, others and the universe. (PS)
