General systems theory is the skeleton of science which aims to provide framework or structure of systems on which flesh and blood of any stream could be hanged. This will enable to create orderly and coherent group of knowledge. It is used to describe a level of theoretical model building which lies in between highly generalized constructions of pure mathematics and specific theories of different specialized disciplines.

It is the contention of the general system theorists that optimum degree of generality in theory is not always reached by the particular Sciences. The objectives of the general systems theory can be set out to provide optimum degree of generality somewhere in between the specific which has no meaning and the general that has no content

Rather than reducing an entity (e.g. the human body) to the properties of its parts or elements (e.g. organs or cells), systems theory focuses on the arrangement of and relations between the parts which connect them into a whole (cf. holism). This particular organization determines a system, which is independent of the concrete substance of the elements (e.g. particles, cells, transistors, people, etc).
