"Mind and Tissue is an interesting attempt to bridge the gulf between psychology and the harder neurosciences. Even readers who do not follow all of the technical material in the book will get from it the flavor of Soviet mind research, which, based as it is on very different assumptions from European and American science, has much to tell us about other ways of correlating experiences with events in cells and tissues. Ray Peat has done a useful service in making this information available."

Andrew T Weil, M D Author of The Natural Mind

"...a cogent summary of Soviet psychology... Peat traces the philosophical origins of Soviet psychology as well as the tradition afforded by Dostoyevski, Tolstoy, and other writers." "The reader... will enjoy the special discussion of such Soviet psychological concepts as "inhibition," the "orienting reflex," the "effect of person," the effects of magnetic fields on behavior, and the notion of time as a possible source of "energy."
