by Anthony Barnett
Lecturer in Zoology, University of Glasgow
Psychiatrists and zoologists have recently found a common interest in the study of the way one sort of behaviour is sometimes substituted for another; for example, a rat grooming his face with his forepaws when an ' 'enemy' has just been put to flight. Anthony Barnett discusses the displacement behaviour of animals in relation to psychoneurotic behaviour and psychosomatic disorder in man. His argument leads to a reconsideration of the whole mind-body problem in the explanation of behaviour.

4-The scientific study of touch
As the basis of a discussion of the influence of the pianist's touch on tone-colour, Dr. George uses a special recording of a complete movement of a Beethoven sonata in which seven well-known pianists take part. He explains how a scientific approach may help to throw light on the problems involved.
