In economic thermodynamics, physioeconomics is a theory that a physics-based physiology of macroeconomics explains economic growth. [1] The theory was conceived by American economicist Philip Parker a professor of economics and international strategy at the University of California. In short, physioeconomics is a loose collection of ideas on the relationship between the hypothalamus, thermodynamics, and economics.
