Originally published in 1911 Preface: Eugenics is the science and the art of being well born. In the words of Francis Galton, who devised the term, it is the study of agencies that may improve or impair the racial qualities of future generations, either mentally or physically. The knowledge of the science of Eugenics will sooner or later develop the art. Knowledge will lead to better men. At present, through the agencies of charities which perpetuate the weak, or war which eliminates the strong, and of an education which makes celibacy a condition of success, we are in a degree reversing the process of natural selection. If the fittest do not serve as parents, the next generations will not inherit fitness.......Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
