GALTON, FRANCIS (1822-1911) Hereditary Genius English Men of Science Human Faculty Natural Inheritarance 1889 Han nalkades psykologin med attityden hos en fysisk antropolog. Han ville ha samma slags uppgifter om dimensionerna hos människans medvetande som antropologen redan samlade om människans anatomi. Galtons psykologistudier begränsades inte till sensoriska fenomen. Hans nästa intresse blev förmågan att tänka i bilder. Han upptäckte korrelationen. Galton utpekade den riktning som psykologin snart skulle ta. De problem som psykologer skulle bli intresserade av var problem som ställts i samband med utveckling (anpassning, variation, samvariation, arv) miljö, jämförelser av arter och studier av barn. Där Wundt slog vakt om det förflutna lade Galton grunden för framtiden.

83. Aldous Huxley's Brave New World: Contexts: Sir Francis Galton (1822-1911): The F picture of Sir francis galton. Early efforts to breed better human beings have not been Darwin s halfcousin, the English scientist francis galton, http://www.huxley.net/contexts/

Sir Francis Galton Early efforts to breed better human beings have not been uniformly successful. Darwin's half-cousin, the English scientist Francis Galton, is widely regarded as the founder of eugenics. "Eugenics", a term Galton coined, comes from the Greek roots for "good" and "generation" or "origin". Eugenicists seek methods to improve the hereditary characteristics - both physical and mental - of the human species. However, eugenicists have not agreed upon which heritable traits should selected - nor by whom. Nor have they agreed on whether to use encouragement or coercion. Sir Francis Galton, author of Hereditary Genius (1869), set greatest store by intellectual acumen. Galton himself was a redoubtable polymath: a best-selling author, a tropical explorer, a meteorologist, the founder of differential psychology, the inventor of fingerprint identification, and a pioneer statistician in the field of correlation and regression techniques. Galton coined the phrase "Nature versus Nurture"; Galton's emphasis was on the former. Although contemptuous of the effete English aristocracy, Galton believed that a person's social position in British society broadly was broadly reflective of his innate intellectual prowess. Galton favoured selective breeding "...to give the more suitable races or strains of blood a better chance of prevailing speedily over the less suitable." Galton's proposed eugenic aristocracy would consist of talented artists, scientists and men of letters. As an upper-middle class Victorian, Galton reckoned that it was a tragedy so many dim-witted paupers sired so many children, whereas intellectually superior people, for instance himself, typically had too few. The humanitarian goal of eugenics was summarized by Galton in 1908...

85. Engineering Evolution: The Alchemy Of Eugenics | Phillip D. Collins Sir francis galton could be considered an early evolutionary alchemist. galton, francis, Inquiries into Human Faculty and its Development , New York, http://www.conspiracyarchive.com/Commentary/Evolution.htm

Illuminati Conspiracy Archive Engineering Evolution: The Alchemy of Eugenics I n the dark past of human civilization, the ruling class controlled humanity largely through religious institutions and mysticism. However, the turn of the century witnessed the epistemic transformation of the elite's religious power structure into a "scientific dictatorship." The history and background of this "scientific dictatorship" is a conspiracy, created and micro-managed through the historical tide of Darwinism, which has its foundations in Freemasonry. In this article, we shall examine the evolutionary alchemy of eugenics, from Margaret Sanger's Planned Parenthood to William Sims Bainbridge's Transhumanism. The Alchemical Transformation of Man A common misnomer that has been circulated by academia's anointed historians is that the alchemists of antiquity were attempting to transform lead into gold. In truth, this was a fiction promulgated by the alchemists themselves to conceal their ultimate objectives . . .the transformation of man into a god. Among one of the various occult organizations that aspired to complete this alchemical mission was Freemasonry. Providing a summation of Masonry's supreme goal, Masonic scholar W.L. Wilmshurst writes: evolution of man into superman

Sir Francis Galton (1822-1911) Sir Francis Galton was a man of diverse interests and achievements which range from African exploration to human heredity and eugenics. He was also one of the few 19 th Galton learned about the normal distribution from his friend, the mathematician William Spottiswoode. He immediately recognized "the far-reaching application of that extraordinarily beautiful law which I fully apprehended." Galton familiarized himself with the work of Adolph Quetelet, the Astronomer Royal of Belgium, who was actually the first person to apply the normal distribution to social statistics. But Galton was ultimately interested in the inheritance of what he called "talent and character" in human populations. Since these was difficult to quantify, he turned first to sweetpeas and measured seed diameters over two generations in 1875-76. This led to his discovery of regression to the mean, calculation of the first regression line, and calculation of the first coefficient of regression. Natural Inheritance (1889). There he discussed the properties of the normal curve and how it and other statistical techniques could be applied to biometric data from human beings. After

Classics in the History of Psychology An internet resource developed by Christopher D. Green York University, Toronto, Ontario (Return to Classics index HEREDITARY TALENT AND CHARACTER. By Francis Galton (1865) Originally published in Macmillan's Magazine PART I The power of man over animal life, in producing whatever varieties of form he pleases, is enormously great. It would seem as though the physical structure of future generations was almost as plastic as clay, under the control of the breeder's will. It is my desire to show more pointedly than so far as I am aware has been attempted before, that mental qualities are equally under control. As a first step in my investigation, I sought a biographical work, of manageable size, that should contain the lives of the chief men of genius whom the world is known to have produced. I ultimately selected that of Sir Thomas Phillips, in his well-known work of reference, "The Million of Facts;" because it is compiled with evident discrimination, and without the slightest regard to the question on which I was engaged. It is, moreover, prefaced - "It has been attempted to record, in brief, only the ORIGINAL MINDS, who founded or originated. Biography in general is filled with mere imitators, or with men noted only for chance of birth, or necessary position in society." I do not mean to say that Sir Thomas Phillips's selection is the best that could have been made, for he was a somewhat crochety [ sic ] writer. It did not, however, much matter whose biography I adopted, so long as it had been written in the above-mentioned spirit and so long as I determined to abide stedfastly [

In particular, with no direct evidence of natural selection and no convincing theory of heredity to explain it, Darwin needed a mathematical explanation of variability and heredity. Galton's work in biometry—the application of statistical methods to the biological sciences—laid the foundations for precisely that. This book offers readers a compelling portrait of Galton as the "father of biometry," tracing the development of his ideas and his accomplishments, and placing them in their scientific context. Reviews "Chapters on Galton's early scientific career . . . are followed by meatier chapters on statistical theory of heredity, the law of ancestral heredity, discontinuity in evolution, and biometry. For historians of science the book provides a clear roadmap to what Galton did, or said he did, and what he thought, or what he believed he thought."Hamilton Cravens, Historical Studies in the Physical and Biological Sciences "Michael Bulmer's book is only partially about Galton the man. It begins with a biographical chapter but most of the book describes and evaluates Galton's quantitative work . . . Bulmer guides us skillfully through a great deal of the beginnings of our science. We are where we are because of the labors of people like Francis Galton. Science is not the same thing as progress but Galton's story is relevant to understanding something about the way in which science is related to progress. "

He turned from exploration and meteorology (where he introduced the theory of the anticyclone ) to the study of heredity and eugenics (a term that he coined). Galton devised the correlation coefficient and brought other statistical methods into this work, which was carried on by his pupil Karl Pearson as the science of biometrics. In his Hereditary Genius (1869) he presented strong evidence that talent is an inherited characteristic. Galton established a system of classifying fingerprints that is still used today.
