Hence peace, compassion, empathy, tolerance etc as well as aggression, cruelty are some of these attributes and because of these attributes human has become advanced animal. The central focus in this article is to examine the human physiological basis of peace and violence. In order to emphasise the relationship it has critically analysed the human brain, emotions and the biological basis, and hormones.
