William Ernest Castle, American geneticist : a case-study in the impact of the Mendelian research program

Creator:: Taylor, H. Terry
Abstract:: In their modern context questions of heredity have come to be closely aligned with theories of evolution because all such theories require the presence of heritable variation. Thus the need for an understanding of a source of variation and a mechanism for its inheritance became very apparent with the general...

"We Share a Common Disinheritance": Subjectivity, Dispossession, and Antiblackness in Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man and Paul Beatty's The Sellout
