Abstract: | Commends the work of C. W. Graves (1966, 1970, 1974) on human biopsychosocial systems. Within Graves's system, individuals perceive themselves as alone in the overwhelming fight for survival in a threatening world where others fight back. Graves states that conflicting personality theories, schools of psychotherapy, learning theories, and conflicting views of how the world should function can be explained by assessing the systems from which they emanate.
