In this essay we have presented some personal viewpoints on the application of Systems. Analysis to suitable neurophysiological problems and provided reasoned reviews on selected topics (receptor and nerve cell physiology, motor control, vestibular and visual systems) in which new data and ideas were brought about in the past several years by the use of Systems Analysis. Since the nature of the paper precludes the possibility of writing a summary, we simply thank those readers who have endured up to this point. As for those prudent persons who are beginning from this summary, before deciding as to the advisability of taking-up the task, we have a simple advice which runs contrary to the rule stated by the King to Alice in Wonderland (and accepted by one of us; see p. 60): begin from the topic that you like most and eventually go on, using the same criteria, till you are tired: then stop.
在本文中，我们就系统分析在合适的神经生理学问题中的应用提出了一些个人观点，并对过去几年因使用系统分析而产生新数据和新观点的选定主题（受体与神经细胞生理学、运动控制、前庭与视觉系统）进行了合理的综述。由于本文的性质使得撰写总结不太可能，我们仅在此感谢坚持阅读到此处的读者。至于那些从这个总结开始阅读的谨慎之人，在决定是否适合承担这项任务之前，我们有一个简单的建议，这与《爱丽丝梦游仙境》中国王对爱丽丝所说的规则（我们中的一人认同此规则；见第60页）相反：从你最喜欢的主题开始，然后以同样的标准继续，直到你感到疲倦：然后停止。
