Extractions: National Life From the Standpoint of Science, 1900 Pearson's ideas, which are all about a social darwinistic, racist/nationalist, notion of the superiority of Europeans stuff was quite common at the time. It is simply offensive today. History shows me one way, and one way only, in which a high state of civilization has been produced, namely, the struggle of race with race, and the survival of the physically and mentally fitter race. If you want to know whether the lower races of man can evolve a higher type, I fear the only course is to leave them to fight it out among themselves, and even then the struggle for existence between individual and individual, between tribe and tribe, may not be supported by that physical selection due to a particular climate on which probably so much of the Aryan's success depended. . . There is a struggle of race against race and of nation against nation. In the early days of that struggle it was a blind, unconscious struggle of barbaric tribes. At the present day, in the case of the civilized white man, it has become more and more the conscious, carefully directed attempt of the nation to fit itself to a continuously changing environment. The nations has to foresee how and where the struggle will be carried on; the maintenance of national position is becoming more and more a conscious preparation for changing conditions, an insight into the needs of coming environments.

http://www-groups.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Pearson.html

Extractions: Karl Pearson graduated from Cambridge University in 1879, then spent most of his career at University College, London. He was the first Galton professor of eugenics, holding the chair from 1911 to 1933. His book The Grammar of Science (1892), was remarkable in that it anticipated some of the ideas of relativity theory. It was wide ranging and attempted to extend the influence of science into all aspects. Pearson then became interested in developing mathematical methods for studying the processes of heredity and evolution. He applied statistics to biological problems of heredity and evolution. From 1893-1912 he wrote 18 papers entitled Mathematical Contribution to the Theory of Evolution which contain his most valuable work. These papers contain contributions to regression analysis, the correlation coefficient and includes the chi-square test of statistical significance (1900). His chi-square test was produced in an attempt to remove the normal distribution from its central position. Pearson coined the term 'standard deviation' in 1893. His work was influenced by the work of

He published The Grammar of Science (1892), and works on eugenics, mathematics, and biometrics.

Extractions: Karl Pearson: A Readers Guide FRONT page Print the legend! [The first thing Pearson could remember] was sitting in a high chair sucking his thumb. Someone told him to stop sucking it, and added that unless he did so, the thumb would wither away. He put his two thumbs together and looked at them for a long time. They look alike to me, he said to himself. I cant see that the thumb I suck is any smaller than the other. I wonder if she could be lying to me. Here in this simple story we have rejection of constituted authority, faith in his own interpretation of the meaning of observed data, and finally, imputation of moral obliquity to a person whose judgement differed from his own. These characteristics were prominent throughout his entire career.

Extractions: Pearson introduced in 1900 the 2 (chi-squared) test to determine whether a set of observed data deviates significantly from what would have been predicted by a 'null hypothesis' (that is, totally at random). He demonstrated that it could be applied to examine whether two hereditary characteristics (such as height and hair colour) were inherited independently. Pearson was born in London and studied at Cambridge, where he persuaded the authorities to abolish the mandatory classes in Christianity for undergraduates. In 1884 he became professor of mathematics at University College, London; from 1911 he was professor of eugenics at London University. In order to publish work on statistics as applied to biological subjects, he founded 1901 the journal Biometrika, which he edited until his death.
