10-Man in Balance with Nature by C. B. Goodhart , Ph.D.
Assistant Curator, Museum of Zoology, University of Cambridge
Dr. Goodhart argues that the effect of civilisation is not, as is commonly thought, to stop the progress of natural selection but simply to change the environment in which it is operating. He contends that, if anything, the rate of evolution of human populations will increase rather than fall.

The speaker considers the view that Tennyson is not a satisfactory poet because we find a clash in his poetry between his sense of responsibility towards his readers and his sense of his own inability to fulfil it.
