About this work

Description

Two manuscript pages of autobiographical notes. Haldane introduces his early life and scientific career, outlines his political stance, gives a brief physical description of himself and mentions that he is currently refusing to evacuate UCL. Also briefly mentions his dismissal from Cambridge University in 1926 and his time spent in Republican Spain in 1938-39. Undated, but must have been written in September - November 1939 due to the reference to the evacuation of UCL.
