In science, Francis Galton (1822-1911) was an English anthropologist, half-cousin to Engish naturalist Charles Darwin, noted for being in the small group of individuals with a 200+ IQ and for having dialogue, in 1879, with Scottish physicist James Maxwell on the topic of free will and for his interest in hearing Irish physicist William Thomson’s lecture on Maxwell’s demon at the Royal Institute, and likely later commentary on the matter.
