RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 False facts and false views: coalescent analysis of truncated data JF bioRxiv FD Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory SP 006445 DO 10.1101/006445 A1 Einar Árnason YR 2014 UL http://biorxiv.org/content/early/2014/06/30/006445.abstract AB Darwin’s dictum on false facts and false views points the way to opening the road to truth via cogent criticism of the published record.
