Francis Galton: Pioneer of Heredity and Biometry
Ok, don't laugh, but I've been trying to formulate my own "personal statement" these last months. You know, what I believe, what I value, what I aspire to... that kind of thing. "The World As I See It" is exactly what I'd like to write for myself, for those I love. Of course, it would help if I were Albert Einstein... I certainly don't expect to publish mine. But I want to take the time to think through and articulate "the world as I see it." Einstein is a good man-- yeah, he's pretty smart, I guess, but he's also GOOD. And that comes through here. I especially appreciated his conception of religion and its relationship to science: awe and wonder, awe and wonder.
