The letters are mostly between Gosset (known as 'Student') and Sir Ronald Aylmer Fisher (1890-1962) who became Professor of Eugenics at University College London. Letters from other scientists are interleaved where they bear on the correspondence.
Collection of letters, mostly between Gosset and Ronald Aylmer Fisher (1890-1962), who became Professor of Eugenics at University College London. Letters from other scientists are interleaved where they bear on the correspondence. The papers were received in July 1980 from Sir R. A. Fisher via Laurence McMullen, Gosset's successor in the Guinness Brewery, and via E.S. Pearson. They were arranged by Sir R.A. Fisher and the red numbers on the letters are Fisher's numbering. They are in chronological order. Apparently one letter of 19th August 1932 is missing. Its absence had been noted.
