Sinopsis

Excerpt from Nature and Nurture, the Problem of the Future: A Presidential Address Delivered by Karl Pearson, F. R. S. At the Annual Meeting of the Social and Political Education League, April 28, 1910, With Two Plates of Pedigrees

That lesson was the experience I gained as a lecturer for this League some thirty years ago. It took me, as a slow thinker, several years to learn it, and very little return I made for that to me inestimable knowledge. Briefly, this is what I learnt I am endeavouring to help, where I am really ignorant. These men ask me as to. The facts of human life and I reply with theory and dogma. The university has omitted the great essential for social work - a concrete study of man. We have yet to collect the data upon which such a study can be based - the very calculus by which it can be analysed has yet to be invented.
