Alors qu'on envisage classiquement les organes terminaux et neurones centraux, nous dit-il, comme des structures normalement inactives et mises en activité par un stimulus, possédant une excitabilité, du fait de la présence de substances excitables, B. admet qu'il y a une activité rythmique continue des éléments nerveux, la sensation naissant d'un accroissement de cette activité par la stimulation (avec maintien passager d'une augmentation « hystéré- siale »), le mécanisme d'activité relevant du jeu, de l'interaction de deux « kinésiphores » (dont l'existence serait démontrée par les actions antagonistes que peut exercer un même type de drogue, par l'influence de divers liquides perfuses sur l'activité cardiaque, etc.). Une « responsivité » est définie, comme capacité d'un « tissu rythmique » à présenter une modification d'activité, comme réaction à un changement de milieu, et rattachée au jeu de deux facteurs, l'équilibre des deux kinésiphores, l'un favorable, l'autre défavorable, et l'amplitude du « battement » (à laquelle la responsivité est inversement proportionnelle). De ces principes (qui sont sous bien des aspects, moins «nouveaux» que ne le pense l'auteur, la notion de rythmicité, l'appel à un phénomène antagoniste, apparaissant dans bien des travaux que B. paraît ignorer complètement), l'auteur passe, par un saut, qui ne laisse guère au lecteur la possibilité de voir la jonction, à des explications de l'hérédité, de la démence précoce, de l'émotion, etc., avec un schéma de l'esprit, comportant les étages de Pinfra-connaissable, de l'hypo- phasique, de l'eucritique, du paracritique, de l'ultracritique, et de l'ultra-connaissable, qui est beaucoup plus proche de la pure métaphysique que de la physiologie nerveuse. L'étroite juxtaposition de ces points de vue hétérogènes, qui s'entremêlent dans l'esprit de l'auteur, et dans les pages de son livre, ne laisse pas de donner une forte impression d'incohérence.""." minor wear on the bottom right corner of the binding (very lightly torn without missing), else near fine copy, no dust-jacket, inside is clean, no markings‎
