Qian Quelin (os Xuesen)
· Contributing author to Chinese Journal of Somatic Science
· Has repeatedly pointed out:
- "research in somatic science may lead to a new
scientific revolution in the 21st century.
- "It may also be a greater scientific revolution than those of
quantum physics and the theory of relativity in the
20th century."
- "Qigong scientific research must start from phenomenological
Qigong studies, setting up phenomenological Qigong studies.
· The only method that can currently be used to process an opex,
complex giant-scale system is that which has been refined,
generalized, and abstracted on the basis of actual practice by the
Chinese system science workers under the guidance of
Comrade Qian Xuelin. This is the comprehensive integrated
method which combines qualitative and quantitative methods,
Under the guidance of Cermade Pian Xuelin , workers in China's
systems sciences have come up with the comprehensive
integration method, which is a combination of the objective
and the subjective, for studying the open, complex giant-scale
system of the human body, and have demonstrated its
effectiveness.

· Has watched the progress of somatic science all along, and has
published a number of papers concerning a series of theories and
methods of somatic science. This has played a key role in
providing guidance for the advancement of studies in somatic
science.
· Published a book (On Somatic Science) (published by the
PLA military Medicine Press, 1988) which systematically
collected the treatises on somatic sciences by Qian Xuchi
and other comrades ,
· White papers included in the first edition of Founding of Somatic
Science published by Sichuan Educational Press. It basically
collected all of Quan Xudin's relevant discussion up to the
present time and includes, among other things, paranormal perception,

an international conference on somatic studies is planned for 1991
The organizational system will be coordinated with The national
Defense Industries Commission.
· Qian Xuelin proposed "this brand new concept (ie, Somatic Science)
early in 1981. It was to be a science to study the functions of
the human body and is divided into three areas of systems theory:
- Qigong
- Paranormal abilities
- Traditional Chinese medicine (historically excluded from science)
· The field of somatic science has attracted a large number of famous older generation
scientists in China such as :
- Qian Xuelin
- Zhao z hongshao
- Wang Jinchang
- Bei Shizhang
- and others
- The first rol, of Founding of Somatic Science is an overall summary of the
development of this work in China. This book collects articles covering
period beginning in May of 1978 with the publication of the first scientific
report in China concerning the physical nature of Qigong external air and
The article published in the 11 March 1979 "Sichuan, Daily" concerning
a child in Dazu County who could recognize characters by use of his ears.
It basically collected all of Commade Qian Xuelin's relevant discussions
up to the present time. The advent of this book not only significes that
research work in somatic science in China has already made it
through the earliest difficulties, but also presages that this work
is about to enter a new profound stage of research.

And His Pupil in the Pentagon
CPYRGHT
I
N 1949 THERE WAS a bril-
liant Chinese professor of jet
propulsion at the California Ingti-
tute of Technology who had an
. eager young specialist in high-
speed air dynamics among his
graduate students.
The Chinese scientist was so far
in the forefront of technological
pioneering, and so trusted, that he
was made director of the rocket
section of the United States Na-
tional Defense Scientific Advisory
Board. But in the turbulent outset
of loyalty-security scares, he was
arrested in 1950 on charges of
being a Communist, and was ord-
ered deported to Communist
China. Then, before the order
could be carried r.it, it was de-
cided he knew too many secrets to
ho deported; finally in 1955 he was
: to China in an exchange of
nationals. In China he was be-
lieved to have had a major share in
developing China's first nuclear
bombs.
i
That was Prof. Tsien Hsue-
shen. He had the rank of Air Force
colonel in World War II and
headed a scientific mission sent to
explore the advances in missilery
made by Hitler's scientists. Tsien
later was one of the braintrusters
assigned to predict how the next
war might be fought. Their report,
"Toward New Horizons," became
1
a major seedbed for many subse-
quent American military ad-
vances.

Tsien's deportation "was a tre-
mendous loss for us, and a great "
gain for China," said one former
student last week. He is Richard
D. Delauer, now the Pentagon's
"of scientist with the title of un-
secretary of defense for re-
.
search and engineering. In that
post, Reagan administration ap-
Richard D. DeLauer, left; Tsien Hsue-shen
(Rion que-sen)
the United States can supply to
the nation which it now embraces
as a "friend" with "parallel" global
security interests - the People's
Republic of China.
"What a perceptive guy Tsien
was," Delauer said admiringly.
Delauer, a nonbureaucratic type of
scientist from California where he
knew Ronald Reagan as governor
and Defense Secretary Caspar W.
Weinberger as a Reagan associate,
is a veteran of the early days of
American ballistic missile and jet
aircraft development. He most re-
cently was executive vice presi-
dent of TRW; the engineering
conglomerate.
Delauer recalled admiringly that
in 1949 Tsien at an academic
party at Caltech told Delauer's
wife and a friend, "Look girls, I
would like to sell you a ticket to
the moon." They thought he was
drunk or unbalanced. Tsien,
Delauer said, "wrote one of the
first papers on the application of
nuclear energy to controlled rocket
flight."
Tsien, who was Goddard profes-
sor of jet propulsion at Caltech,
was arrested after government
and space physics he intended to
ship to Hong Kong. It was charged
that the papers contained valuable
security information and . that
their real destination was Shang-
hai. U.S. prosecutors charged that
Tsien became a Communist before
he arrived in the United States as
a graduate student in 1935; Tsien
denied he ever was a Communist.
Delauer said that after Tsien
was barred from the Caltech cam-
pus and any access to his own se-
cret research, he nevertheless con-
tinued it for a time "by remote
control - with graduate students
. who met him off-campus." Said
Delauer sadly, "It was a disaster."
When Tsien finally was deport-
ed, Delauer said, "All of us could
envision masses of bright students
taught by Taien," challenging a
hostile United States with their
own . scientific breakthroughs.
China's "Cultural Revolution" was
devastating for its progress,
Delauer said, but "it was a big .
Freak for us. It destroyed a whole
decade of faculty and students."
Delaver last saw Tsien in 1952,
and understands that Tsien is now
in the class of "elder statesmen" in
bina's scientific development.
