Three Kingdoms of the Brain

1. R-Complex; aggressive behavior, territoriality, ritual, and establishment of social hierarchies.

2. Lymbic System; love, hate, compassion, and sentimentality-characteristics believed to be strictly mammalian.

3. Neo-Cortex; the home of reasoning and deliberation and "the place where we know the difference between good and evil."
