Molecular Biology of Bacterial Viruses
Abstract
The subject matter of this Ciba symposium departs from the usual specialized, esoteric topics of these meetings. Bringing together such noted scientists as Sir Julian Huxley, Joshua Lederberg, Albert Szent-Gy6rgi, and J. B. S. Haldane, this conference discusses the future of mankind as seen through the eyes of people actively engaged in biological research. These men don the philosopher's hat and attempt to analyze the impact of recent advances in the sciences of genetics, agriculture, psychology, medicine, technology, and others on the future development of man as a social being and on the society in which he lives. Their essays are provocative and challenging and provide interesting reading for scientist and layman alike. They discuss subjects which mankind will be concerned with in the relatively near future such as eugenics, population control, the food supply, and automation and do not deal in prediction of future utopias. At times the central theme of an essay is difficult to follow because the author jumps from one point to another. On the whole, however, the articles are written well, and the thoughts are followed with ease.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
