Digitized by Google Digitized by Google AN UNKNOWN FORCE 159 will, of vitality, between two different organisms, a con- ception of the biactinic force can be gained, which sums up the principal facts upon which is based the affirma- tion of those who believe in its reality. This force would be, then, the nerve force radiating from one organism to another, circulating from one organism to another. But our conception of the nerve force is itself very vague, very indeterminate, and the only means ...we have of making it more precise is to compare it to physical forces to which it presents certain analogies, princi- pally electricity. Hence there is not, perhaps, great inconvenience — there may even be some advantage — in trying to. conceive the biactinic force in the light of what we know of its analogies to physical forces, dis- regarding all speculation upon nerve energy or nerve force. Considered from this viewpoint — which brings to mind that of the early partizans of animal magnetism — the biactinic force can be regarded, if not as a form of electricity or of magnetism, at least as an electroidal or magnetoidal force, the effects and laws of which are comparable, mutatis mutandis, to those of the modes of universal energy.
