The Graphical Thinking system described in 'Understanding Thinking' is derived from a systems analysis technique called Entity Relationship Modelling which you can find in any good S.S.A.D.M. (Structured Systems Analysis and Design Methodolgy) text book.
Think about how our new understanding of neural networks collapses the old distinction between mind and matter, and changes our interpretation of Descarte's observations about human thinking, as expressed in his Principles of Philosophy - Human Knowledge - Material Things - The Visible Universe - The Earth.
