Summary

Mainly arising from the 'Resolution on scientific freedom regarding human behaviour and heredity' (signed by 50 distinguished scientists, including Darlington) which Page circulated after its publication in American Psychologist, 27 (1972). Includes correspondence and papers both attacking and defending the 'Resolution'.
