Whether there is a unified theory of biology is still a matter of debate. This can be answered only if the question ‘what constitutes a unified theory’ is answered. The answer will be ‘no’ in the sense that there is no unified theory of biology supported by clear mathematical equations effectively describing different aspects of all biological behaviors. However, many biologists opine that there is a unified theory of biology because biology is unified by the modern evolutionary synthesis, which simply refers to “theoretical merger of Darwin’s theory of natural selection and genetics” (Henriques, 2012).

The concepts of Communal Sharing (CS) and Market Pricing (MP) were compared. These appeared to be the most interesting to compare because they demonstrate an almost opposite perspective for assessing values. The first is based on sharing within a community while the second is based on a type of “pricing” or ‘keeping score.’ So in a CS situation the neediest will be given the most while in the MP everyone is determined to have an equal ...
