Since physicists discovered the four fundamental forces of nature--weak, strong, electromagnetic, and gravity--they have tried to unify them into one theory. Physicists went down to the subatomic level to search and ended up with vibrating strings. They went up into space and ended up with gravitons (which are yet to be found). But what do these forces mean in terms of human behavior? In The Four Forces of Human Nature: A Unifying Theory, Dr. Trevino Pena identifies the human forces and the specific areas of the brain responsible for processing them.

He finds spirituality inherent in sex, and at the same time explores the many ways in which spiritual values can sometimes wound our sexuality.
