An 'integrated human' is a person who is working towards excellence in all areas, including: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. It is a person who is striving to be a genearalist, not a specialist. It is a person who is more powerful and effective, from a wholistic perspective - than a specialist.
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. -- Robert A. Heinlein
