Abstract

Human behavior has been studied from the approach of the student of animal experimentation, and from that of the student of mental illness. Man shares many characteristics with the animal as well as sharing with his fellow man those which become exaggerated in mental illness. Along with the proven value of these viewpoints a rewarding and reasonable approach would seem to be a study of those characteristics which are uniquely human.
