From the Paper:

"The writer is writing this paper in the hopes of arriving at a theoretical orientation that will touch upon the five topics of meta-psychology, model of personality, model of health, model of pathology, and model of change. This process is not easy, but this paper will endeavor to do precisely that due to the belief that having a personal philosophy about the practice of psychology provides the intellectual underpinning needed to navigate successfully through a difficult and complex field of study. With that in mind, this paper looks at broader questions, such as the human condition, human nature, whether or not human beings are evil, whether or not they are social beings, and whether or not the fate of human beings is determined by biological factors or something else.
