This text was first elaborated to be presented as a discussion subject on educational techniques at the 12th International Symposium on Revision of Natural Sciences
, held in Moscow in April 2001, on the kind invitation of Nikolaj J. Bakumtsev, distinguished president of the International Intellectual Fund and organizer of the Symposium. But it quickly appeared desirable that it be published for it to become available to all who are interested in the conditions leading to the awakening of intelligence in young children (teachers, students in the educational sciences or neurophysiology, etc.).
Its interest for the educational community lies in its numerous references to little publicized experimental research endeavors that confirm the importance of early learning and mastery of all verbal abilities, particularly the reading skill, which, by its very nature, is bound to favor the concurrent mastery of all of the other aspects of verbal development.
Despite an acute awareness in these circles for the need to awaken the ability to think and express thought coherently before the age of 7 in all children, few seem to realize that such an awakening is actually caused by mastering of these abilities.
Indeed, contrary to popular belief, which is that the reading skill is only a simple skill to be mastered on the same level as geography or singing, very interesting research has shown that mastery of that skill in due time, and to a lesser extent, those of writing and arithmetic, has undeniable consequences on the structuration of the brain and on the development of the general understanding ability, that extend far beyond what is generally believed.
But, each time that the topic of early tutoring of the reading skill is broached, the classical objection is, of course, Let them play, they have ample time!
. But we will see as this exposé unfolds, that the time available for each child to efficiently master the verbal skills is not unlimited. In fact, biological reasons at the level of the construction of the brain will cause verbal skills that have not been mastered before the age of 7, to be more difficult to acquire afterwards.
I wish to express my wholehearted gratitude to a precious collaborator whose friendly and useful remarks and suggestions have enriched this text and will have rendered it, we hope, interesting for all who care for the education of children.
His name is René Angel, a tireless promoter of early learning of reading skills, who let me benefit from his vast knowledge in this regard.

My unmitigated thanks also, to Mrs. Jeanine Cougnenc, renowned French pedagogue and field educator possessing a 38 years span of direct teaching to preschool and 1rst cycle of primary school in France, who let me have access to an important pool of documentation on her past writings, including some unpublished material, and has authorized me to reproduce some parts that were important for the integrity of this work.

Introduction
[Back to TOC]
Over the course of the last 7 years of his life (1929-1936), Pavlov eventually came to understand the causal link that exists between language and conceptual thinking, and it is consequently to him that we owe this extraordinary discovery ([17]). According to his conclusions, the highest cognitive functions of the human brain are the end result of a process initiated by the memorization of the sequences of motion that must be executed by the phonating organs to pronounce each word.
The impregnation of these sequences is accompanied by the establishment in the brain hemispheres of cerebral structures physiologically associating each word to the sensory perceptions or emotions that the individual associates to them, thus allowing their analysis and generalization.
The whole collection of the cerebral structures thus created constitutes, according to him, the seat of conceptual thinking.
The following quote from Pavlov, taken from his essay "Versuch einer physiologischen Interpretation der Symptomatologie der Hysterie", 1932, ([1], p. 265), perfectly summarizes his conclusions:
"In superior animals, including humans, there develops, in the brain's hemispheres, a first system of signalization that brings to the individual's attention the signals originating from the environment and emotions. In human beings, a second system of signalization brings to the attention of the individual the signals of the first system. This second system is made up of cerebral structures created by the kinesthetic excitation induced by the use of the speech organs.
So, there comes into being a new principle of nervous activity, which abstracts and simultaneously generalizes the innumerable signals of the first system. In parallel, the ability to analyze and synthesize the newly generalized signals comes into being. This new principle allows a boundless orientation in the environment and constitutes the foundation of the ultimate realization of Man, science, under its generalized form as well as under its specialized forms.
This second system and its organ are the very last, and particularly delicate, push of the evolutionary process."
It must be said these interesting conclusions of Pavlov were the object of very little attention in western countries. According to my verifications, the famous translations done by G. V. Anrep in 1927, Conditioned Reflexes, an Investigation of the Physiological Activity of the Cerebral Cortex ([2]), and by W. H. Gantt in 1928, Lectures on Conditioned Reflexes ([3]), seem to be about all that was published of his work in the western world. These translations obviously do not mention the research that he carried out after they were published. It was only in 1998 that Doctor Lothar Pickenhein published the bulk of what Pavlov wrote between 1929 and 1936 (I. P. Pawlow - Gesammelte Werke - Über die Physiologie und Pathologie der höhere Nerventätigkeit ([1]).
It seems that only one western researcher of that era developed sufficient interest for these conclusions of Pavlov to endeavor to carry on that line of research in the neurophysiology domain. That researcher was Doctor Paul Chauchard, French neurophysiologist, Director of Research at l'École des Hautes Études in France.
His most important result was the direct causal link that he established between the density of the network of synaptic links that is established in and between the verbal areas of the neocortex as a consequence of learning the words of a language between birth and the age of 7, and the level of intelligence reached by individuals. His results were published in 1960, in a book titled Le cerveau et la conscience ([4]).
A researcher contemporary to Pavlov, Alfred Korzybski, who founded the Institute of General Semantics, conducted on his part a remarkable independent research on the links existing between words of languages and the external objective reality that these words are meant to describe. His results were published in 1933 in a book titled Science and Sanity ([5]).
In the 1940's, as the first research were carried out on artificial intelligence, Donald Hebb, from McGill University in Montreal, explored the manner in which information is processed by correlation in sets by neural nets ([29]). His results were published in 1949, and are summarized in an April 1990 article from specialized journal Dr. Dobb's Journal, Untangling Neural Nets ([6]).
In the field of pedagogy, doctor Glenn Doman,
