“The Never Ending Quest: Clare W. Graves Explores Human Nature”
 

This essential compilation of Dr. Graves's writing is edited by Chris Cowan and Natasha Todorovic with the help of William R. Lee and others. Relying on papers, recordings and the text of Dr. Graves's previously unpublished manuscript, this is as close as we will ever come to the book Dr. Graves intended to write before his health stopped him. 

Entirely in his own words, Graves describes his research and how he came to his remarkable theory over a period of years. He compares his work to a number of other theoreticians' and shows how this kind of thinking can be useful from the individual to geopolitical levels.
