Synopsis
Excerpt from The Next Generation: A Study in the Physiology of Inheritance In offering this small volume to those who may read it the author wishes to express her own indebtedness, not alone to the men and to the women whose books have supplied her with facts and with inspiration, but also to relatives and personal friends who have shared in her work as counselors, and to authorities of distinguished attainment who have given the manuscript careful reading. Among these should be mentioned Professor Irving Fisher of Yale University, Professor W. L. Tower and Professor G. H. Mead of The University of Chicago, Professor Thomas M. Balliet of New York University, Dr. Luther H. Gulick of New York City, and Professor Adolf Meyer of the Johns Hopkins University. Acknowledgment is also made to authors and to publishers through whose kindness many of the illustrations of this book have become possible; also to Mr. Victor David Brenner for permission to represent on the cover his medallion, "The Successors to the Fates." Having been designed for the Fifteenth International Congress of Hygiene and Demography, this emblem most appropriately shows that "the distaff from which is spun the thread of life is held to-day by the forces of modern hygiene."
