editAt the beginning of Section 7 in the Book it is stated
The Project, when I made my appearance, had two concrete achievements to show for itself; they were actually one and the same, repeated independently in the biochemistry and biophysics departments. ... "Frog Eggs" and "Lord of the Flies."
Thus I corrected the page, where we now just have
Before Hogarth's arrival, the scientists were able ...
Positivism
editis not the position that scientists can proceed without being influenced by their attachment to the outside world. Whereas that position would strengthen the outlook for positivism as a practicable programme (and we are about a century late for that debate), it is not implied by positivism. 92.184.121.14 (talk) 14:20, 16 June 2023 (UTC)
