point of view is that a holistic perspective and a
partial point of view is that a holistic perspective
views things as a whole, while a partial point of
view is based on a part of the whole.
A holistic considers the interconnection
and impact of all the factors or
components that are relevant to a
phenomenon
A partial point of view is either based on
ones own opinions
