Abstract:
Early in this century, only a few biologists accepted that natural selection was the chief cause of evolution, until the independent calculations of John Burdon Sanderson Haldane (1892–1964), Sewall Wright and R. A. Fisher demonstrated that ideal populations subject to Mendel's laws could behave as Darwin had said they would. Evolutionary theorist John Maynard Smith, a student of Haldane's, has raised the question of why Haldane, who was no naturalist, took up the subject of evolution, and he suggests that the answer may have to do with Haldane's lively interest in religion. In fact Maynard Smith's answer has much more evidence in its favour than he knew.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTIn the course of his somewhat unorthodox career in science, the physiologist John Scott Haldane occasionally turned to biography to portray the aims and values that he associated with such a career. But the same concerns can also be discerned in his scientific writings which drew, in large part, on experiments he conducted on himself. For Haldane, biology, as the science of life, was inseparable from biography, as the depiction of a life in science; and he embodied both these enterprises in his own autobiological investigations. Analysing these connections in Haldane's work serves to illuminate the contested role of science in the growth of professional society and the emergence of the intellectual aristocracy.

Abstract:
This chapter studies the response of rationalist writers to the claims of theologians arguing that their ideology lacked any sense of a wider purpose to human life. It is argued that to replace the spiritual dimension of religion, authors such as H. G. Wells, J. B. S. Haldane, and J. D. Bernal appealed to the possibility that the human race could in future develop a collective mentality and spread this awareness throughout the cosmos by space travel. Their ideas thus anticipated themes developed by later science-fiction authors such as Arthur C. Clarke in his 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Abstract:
To paraphrase the first advertisement for my first book (“Crisis is a terrifying novel. But don’t let that scare you”), this book is about the noble gases. But don’t let that scare you. It’s really about how science works. There is a general misapprehension about this. Most people, without thinking about it, visualize the universe as a railroad track disappearing into the distance, and science as the locomotive slowing wending its way along the track, learning year by year more and more about this universe in which we live. Not so. It would be more realistic to visualize the universe as a black forest hidden on a cloud-obscured night, with science as a lost child trying to find its way home, feeling blindly the branches of the trees, occasionally being slapped in the face by one, tripping over the roots of another, stumbling on a path and taking it eagerly only to find it branching or, worse, precipitately ending. Nothing to do then but turn around and go back, find another branch, another path, or, worse luck, with no path to be found, try again and again to feel your way through the dark trees striving to find some light, somewhere, anywhere. The only thing wrong with this analogy is that being lost in such a forest would be terrifying, whereas science is fun. What is right about the analogy is that science does not run along a straight path like the locomotive but bumbles to the right and left, sometimes backwards, and every once in a while takes a step closer to home, to the ultimate goal, to an understanding of our universe. The last part of that sentence, if you think about it, is astounding. Despite being born naked and ignorant of everything around us we have learned from solely our own efforts that this flat ground we walk on is actually curved, part of a spheroid, that the stars we see are suns, that everything we touch and hold is made up of a hundred or so different particles, that our world has existed not forever but for four and a half billion years, and that many of the stars are billions of years older, in fact that the entire universe is just under fourteen billion years old. This and so much more we know; a truly amazing feat, expressed best by the quote which opens this section—but another quote (by J. B. S. Haldane) serves to balance it: “The Universe is not only queerer than we suppose, but queerer than we can suppose.”

Abstract:
Multiple introductions are warranted to this complex and unusual series. The first section describes its origins, its polymath editor C. K. Ogden, some of his related editorial ventures, and the books by some of the more prominent contributors. The distinctive futurological angle is discussed, together with its generally progressive orientation, and commitment to intelligent debate. The importance of the scientific approach is introduced, as a main thread running through the series and this study. Two superb, influential science volumes are introduced: the initial book, J. B. S. Haldane’s Daedalus; or, Science and the Future (1923); and J. D. Bernal’s The World, the Flesh, and the Devil (1929). Some cardinal intellectual contexts are established: how the series addresses time, eugenics, and modernity. Its organization is considered. The contemporary impact is assessed, leading to a discussion of the value of studying past predictions for thinking not only about the past but about the nature of prediction. The second introductory section places the series in the history of futurological thinking from the fin de siècle to the present. It starts from a contrast between today’s data-driven professionalized group foresight exercises and individual imaginative projections.
