Quotes by Elof Axel Carlson (?)

“The survey of the literature from the 1890s through 1910 reveals how the sex chromosome story evolves piecemeal from the many contributions of scientists, sometimes colleagues, sometimes rivals, and each with errors generated by speculations based on incomplete knowledge. Yet each successive finding narrows the interpretive range and in the span of 20 years, a coherent story emerged that has essentially remained unchanged since 1910. Wilson's 1910 description could appear almost unchanged in an introductory biology course today. It is not a story of the victory of one class of scientists over another. It is not the story of a dying out of competitors. It is the 'winning of the facts' that triumphs.”
― Elof Axel Carlson, Mendel's Legacy: The Origin of Classical Genetics
