Synopsis
Excerpt from The Future of Man
No one need be ashamed of his Shortcomings as a 'hu man biologist'. A human biologist must be demographer, geneticist, anthropologist, historian, psychologist and sociologist all in one, and much else besides; he must also be a fairly reasonable sort of human being; and no one can be all of these things. What is written here is therefore the product of a certain Combination of knowledge and ignorance; it is also the product of much careful and anxious thought. I Can now see a good deal wrong with the Style/of these lectures they were too closely reasoned, and often made unfair demands on the listener's attention but I Still feel I was quite right in attempting to expound the processes of reasoning rather than the finished pro ducts of thought. Nearly all that follows is unfinished thinking.
