The development of the integrative dimensions of physiology will require
texts and forms of study that differ from those to which we have become
accustomed in the areas of specialization. The following two types of texts
lie at the heart of integrative study: framework statements and case
histories. Framework statements are scientific aphorisms that summarize
integrative insights; ordered chains of these statements form conceptual
frameworks that stimulate integrative dialogue and thought. Case histories
are stories that portray the events in the life of a living being,
generally human. The nature of these texts, how framework statements are
created, and methods of how texts of this kind may be used in group
dialogues are discussed.
