The evolutionary biologist and polymath J.B.S. Haldane is said to have remarked that “The universe is not only queerer than we imagine but queerer than we can imagine.” And one of those many queer things is that there are more species of beetles than any other kind of animal on our planet. This queer fact also apparently did not escape Haldane’s notice and repartee. Replying to theologians who inquired if there was anything that could be concluded about the Creator from the study of creation, Haldane is said to have quipped, “An inordinate fondness for beetles.” ....

<em>A Dominant Character</em>: New biography of British scientist J.B.S. Haldane

. Haldane, by Samanth Subramanian, W. W. Norton & Company, New York, NY
,
.
Samanth Subramanian’s new biography of the British scientific genius J.B.S. Haldane (1892-1964) devotes its attention both to Haldane’s historic achievements in the field of genetics (and much other scientific research) and to his extremely prominent political activism. These two sides of his life occasionally overlapped.
After a period as a very public fellow traveler of the British Communist Party, Haldane formally joined the CP in 1942, in the middle of the wartime alliance between Churchill and Stalin. He quietly left the Stalinist party in 1950, unable any longer to publicly defend the reactionary anti-scientific edicts handed down by Moscow. Haldane never broke from Stalinism politically, however. ....

Abe: Abraham Lincoln in His Times
By David S. Reynolds |
Penguin Press
Antebellum America was a rough-and-tumble proposition, with the dangerous and uncouth life of the frontier reflected in a fractious political scene in which violent language often crossed over into fistfights and worse. In this revelatory work of cultural biography, Abraham Lincoln emerges as a leader who embodied the wildness and exuberance of the era. ....
