  <dc:title>AAAS [American Association for the Advancement of Science] Talk</dc:title>
  <dc:description>In this speech Luria gave to a meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, he addressed the &quot;certain gloom in the world of biology&quot; fanned by &quot;prophets of doom&quot; that believed that &quot;all that was exciting to solve in biology has been solved.&quot; In it he discussed the attack by integrationists on scientific reductionism, the influence of social sciences on biology, and offered a &quot;pure reductionist creed&quot; that he based on three principles (see page numbers five and six). To explore this, he used the studies of evolution and embryology as examples. He closed with a brief discussion of biolinguistics.</dc:description>
