Bag om English Men Of Science
""English Men of Science: Their Nature and Nurture"" is a book written by Francis Galton in 1874. The book explores the nature and nurture of British scientists of the time, examining their backgrounds, education, and personal characteristics. Galton was interested in the question of whether scientific success was due to innate abilities or to environmental factors such as education and upbringing. The book is based on a survey of over 1800 scientists, including astronomers, biologists, chemists, and mathematicians. Galton's analysis suggests that scientific ability is largely inherited, but that education and social background also play a significant role. The book is considered a landmark in the history of scientific psychology and has been influential in the development of the field of behavioral genetics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
