Notes

  1. . This paper is an expansion and revision of chapter x in Goals of Economic Life (New York: Harper & Bros., 1953), reproduced here with the permission of the publisher. This book resulted from conferences of a study committee of the Federal Council of Churches under the chairmanship of A. D. Ward. I am obligated to this group for critical discussion and to the conference group on the Unified Theory of Human Nature under the chairmanship of Dr. Roy Grinker, Michael Reese Hospital, Chicago. I also owe much of my thinking on this subject to my long personal friendships with W. C. Allee and Ralph W. Gerard.—From Scientific Monthly footnote.

Since 1953 there has been an increasing literature that continues to illuminate biological and cultural evolutionary processes as the source of human values in ways which in general seem to confirm and extend the concepts of this paper, although there are dissidents.
