Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the effects of parental alcoholism on their children's health, intellect, and behavior, drawing on data from two surveysâ"one from the Edinburgh Charity Organization Society and the other from special schools in Manchester. The author measured the effects of parental alcoholism and found that it was correlated with a slightly poorer physique, weight, and health in the children, as well as an increased likelihood of mental defectiveness. However, the author also found that the negative effects of parental alcoholism were likely due to environmental factors, such as lack of nutrition or poor home life, rather than a direct toxic effect of alcohol on the children. Additionally, there was no correlation between parental alcoholism and the children's eyesight. Ultimately, the author's findings challenge the common assumption that parental alcoholism is directly responsible for a wide range of problems in children and suggest that environmental factors play a much larger role than previously thought.

Condition: Very Good. 2 leaves, 35 pp; 3 diagrams. Folio. Original wrappers. Small pieces missing at top & bottom of spine. Small piece torn from blank bottom corner of rear wrapper. Paper sticker on front wrapper (covering printed price information). Very Good. First Edition. Eugenics Laboratory Memoirs XIII. University of London Francis Galton Laboratory for National Eugenics. Quoting from Prefatory Note (p. 1): "The following reply to certain medical critics of our first memoir, accompanied by an examination of the rebutting evidence cited by them, is issued with no delight in controversy. The staff of the Galton Laboratory has far too much urgent work in hand--work which its members think of great social value, and with the magnitude of which their present resources are quite unable to cope--to take pleasure in demonstrating the fallacies of their critics. But we look upon the problem of alcohol as a great national problem, and a problem with which the nation can only hope to cope when it knows the actual facts as to alcohol. These facts are not known at present; they are obscured by passionate rhetoric and hopeless bias. Taking the extreme cases of alcoholism, cases where at least we have certainty of its evil effects on the individual--which is far more than we can assert of its customary and moderate use--we find alcoholism associated in the individual with mental defect. This association has been everywhere interpreted by the advocates of temperance as causation. They have never investigated whether the mental defect was antecedent to or consequent on the alcoholism, or how far it was partly one or partly the other.".…

Condition: Near Fine. 2 leaves, 46 pp; 8 diagrams; 64 tables. Folio. Original wrappers. Paper sticker on front wrapper (covering printed price information), else Near Fine. Eugenics Laboratory Memoir X. University of London Francis Galton Laboratory for National Eugenics. Second Edition. The "Prefatory Note" makes clear this is a second printing and not a second edition: "In issuing this second edition of our First Study to meet the very great demand there has been for it, we had the alternative of recasting the whole paper in order to meet the objections of critics, or of leaving it in its original form. We have preferred the latter course, partly because on re-reading our own paper it appeared to us that a careful study of our text and tables really supplied the answers to most of the criticisms which, not being of a rhetorical and unscientific character, deserve to be considered, and partly because the only rebutting evidence cited by critics is not closely allied to our present form of investigation and therefore has been dealt with at length in a separate study.".…
