Natural Science and the Brain. A Collection of the Main Works of the Great Physiologist

This book presents the most significant works of the great Russian physiologist, Nobel Prize laureate I. P. Pavlov (1849-1936), who made a tremendous theoretical and practical contribution to world science in the study of the physiology of circulation, digestion, and... higher nervous activity. By discovering conditional reflexes and studying them, Pavlov developed a method of physiologically objective study of mental processes. Behind the detailed reports of experiments lies the long and painstaking work of both Academician Pavlov and his numerous colleagues and students, passionately carried out in the name of serving scientific ideals. Even though science has already advanced far ahead, these works will always be in demand, as they form the foundation of modern physiology and medicine. And the lectures of a socially critical orientation, which are usually grouped under the title "On the Mind in General, on the Russian Mind in Particular", reveal other facets of Pavlov's genius, portraying him as a philosopher and analyst.
