A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO
Approve,geSE ACADEMY OF SOMATIC SCIENCE 008-8
Somatic science is a major development of modem science and technology.
Well-known scientist Prof. Qian Xuesen has pointed out, "A thorough study and
research of somatic science will fully change mankind's ability in understanding
and reforming nature, and bringing benefits to mankind." "This may lead to a
scientific revolution in the 21st century which may be even greater than quantum
mechanics and the theory of relativity in the 20th century." "It will usher in a
second Renaissance and is another leap forward for human history."
Headed by Prof. Qian Xuesen, the Chinese scientists have made an all-
around exposition on the concept and content. of somatic science: the guiding
ideologies and view-points, the field and method of study as well as the strategy
of development and recent programmes. Thus, we are laying a foundation and
showing clearly its orientation for the establishment of this new and developing
science.
The spring of 1990 saw the establishment of the Chinese Academy of
Somatic Science. Honorary council chairman of the China Association of Somatic
Science, Qian Xuesen, council chairman, Zhang Zhenhuan are the initiators
and founding directors of this academy. Well-known scientists Zhao Zhongyao,
Bei Shizhang, Qian Weizhang, Wang Dezhao, Wang Shoujue and others expressed
their full concern and support for the establishment and development of this
academy.

The aim of the academy is the establishment of basic studies and research
of somatic science and its application, to lay a good foundation for the basic ap-
plication of somatic science and to benefit mankind.
GUIDING IDEOLOGY
The academy uses dialectical-materialist ideologies as a guide to study and
research somatic science;
With systems, theory and methodology as an academic guide, using results
of modern science to derive the essence of traditional culture;
Combining the study and research of modern medicine, traditional medi-
cine, qigong and the special functions of the human-body;
Combining the study and research in a multidisciplinary approach;
Combining basic studies and -research with applications.
ORGANIC PRINCIPLE AND ORGANIZATION
The academy utilizes the organic principle in organizing the nuclear struc-
ture within a small entity, providing greater elasticity and multiple strata. In
the first stratum there is an advisory committee, board of directors and an acade-
mic committee, implementing the chairman's responsibility under the provisions
of leadership of the board of directors. In the second stratum are basic studies
and research, application studies and research, talent collecting departments, in-
ternational cooperaton, administrative management and other functional depart-
ments. The third stratum consists of a certain number of centres, institutes, de-
partments, sections and other grass-root units directly affiliated to the academy.
The fourth stratum includes units and'individuals having close contacts or co-
operative relations with the academy.
A small number of professionals, and a greater number of personnel with
concurrent jobs, work with a capable and efficient academy as the center, and
with scientists as the main body. They will make full use of modern means of
communication and transportation as well as the most advanced instruments and
facilities at home and abroad. They will conduct separate studies and research,
and implement unified leadership and unified management. Our aim is to estab-
lish. a new-type of study and research academy with. high efficiency, and high
standards.as well as a vigorous and flexible economy.
The Chinese Academy of Somatic Science is a self-funded civic-scientific re-
search organization. Its funds are chiefly from funds allocated to subjects of
scientific research and benefits from donations, as well as cooperation and as-
sistance at home and abroad.

Somatic Science ( Science Of Human Body )
Somatic science is the science of man in cos-
mic environment tin the language of systems sci-
ence,the human body is considered to be an open
complex giant system embeded in the supergiant
system of comic world; here "open" is referred to
the human body environment, "giant" means the
number of the constituting members of the system
runs to billions and billions ,"complex"means the
kinds of the constituting members are also numer-
ous and the interactions among the members are of
great variety. Somatic science thus departs in basic
viewpoint from the classical reduetignist physiolo-
gy. The importance of feedback of conscience on
physiology, including the multi-level actions and
interactions of human brain, is emphasized. This
points to the difference betweeen somatic science
and plant or animal biology, and separates the so-
matic science from the life science in general.
Somatology, an old terminology, is here re-
suscitated as the fundamental discipline of Somati.
Science ,and Is the synthesis of classical physiolo-
gy, modern psychology, psychophysiology, neuro-
science, scientific parts of chinese traditional
medicine and Qigong(Transcendental meditation),
and other related subjects such as ESP and PK.
The quasi-stable characteristic states of human
body system,such as waking, sleeping and Qigong
state,are called the somatic Eigenstate.
As the philosophy of somatic science, the an-
xhropic principle of Robert H. Dicke and Branden
Carter,derived from cosmological consideration is
extended to include on the microscopic scale,quan-
tum theory of measurement or quantum epistemol-
ogy, and to include on the macroscopic scale, the
fundamental principles of Chinese traditional
medicine.
