Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book argues the urgent need for a new scientific field dedicated to understanding how to improve the racial qualities of future generations: Eugenics. The author emphasizes the importance of studying the biological factors that influence racial health, such as genetics and environmental factors, which he believes are closely linked to national success and decline. Drawing on evidence from history, the author argues that nations that have experienced periods of greatness often declined due to a lack of attention to racial purity. The author sees this new science as a tool for statesmen and administrators to use in building and preserving strong nations. By understanding the principles of Eugenics, policymakers can make informed decisions about how to promote racial health and prevent the degeneration of their people. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332193745_0
