Two dozen papers from the Academy's June 2000 conference in New York City cover beyond nature-nurture: genes, brain, and behavior; emotion, cognition, and the human brain; future directions for the social sciences; science, culture, meaning, and values; and science in the liberal arts curriculum. The keynote address by Edward O. Wilson (zoology, Harvard U.) explains How to Unify Knowledge. Other topics include stress, individual differences, and the social environment from molecules to mind; emotion and the human brain; biological constraint, cultural variety, and psychological structures; and K-12 science education as the road to consilient curricula.
