Handweise für Naturfreunde und Zentralblatt für das naturwissen-schaftliche Bildungs- und Sammelwesen‘. He discusses most recent results of neurophysiology and psychological studies on plants and animals and presents Bio-Ethics as a new academic discipline and a new moral attitude corresponding with the term Bio-Psychik, used by philosopher and psychologist Rudolf Eisler as the newly developing
soul science of all forms of life.
