Abstract

The general theory of functional systems, created by P.K. Anokhin and developed in his scientific school, has opened up fundamentally new approaches for studying the systemic organization of brain functions. This paper postulates some of the main principles of this theory. In contrast to classical physiology, which studies the functions of organs and the dynamics of their work, the physiology of functional systems is concerned with the organism as a complex of multiple systemic organizations connected by their dynamic relationships. The data stated here testify to the fact that the theory of functional systems shows new ways for the development of integrative biology.
