This volume presents the proceedings of the fifth in a series of influential conferences on Brain Function, held in Pacific Palisades, California, and jointly sponsored by the Brain Research Institute at UCLA and the U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research. Bringing together a distinguished group of experts from diverse fields—ranging from neurophysiology to sociology—the conference delved into the neural and behavioral foundations of aggression and defense in both animals and humans. Through a multidisciplinary lens, the sessions explored evolutionary perspectives on aggression, analyzed human behavior in social and psychiatric contexts, and addressed contemporary issues like gang violence and global conflict. This volume serves as a vital resource for those interested in understanding the biological and social mechanisms underlying aggression and its implications for modern society.

This title was originally published in 1967.
