Abstract
Abstracts. Neuropathology and Psychiatry. Bleuler E. in the article Psyche and psychoid (A scientific conception of the relations between psyche and body. Psychiatr. Quart. 4. 1930) defends his peculiar panpsychism, which he developed earlier in his German book of the same title. The psyche is the highest stage of the "psychoid", and the psychoid is what lies at the basis of somatic processes and represents the same mechanisms of purposefulness and purposefulness inherent in mental processes. The psyche and psychoid work together, harmoniously in the interests of the organism.
