Sinossi
Excerpt from The Heredity of Richard Roe: A Discussion of the Principles of Eugenics
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 processes of natural selec tion. If the fittest do not serve as par ents, the next generations will not in herit fitness.
In the present discussion, Richard Roe, a familiar figure in legal practice, serves as a lay figure of heredity, and in tracing his career some of the leading facts and principles of Eugenics are brought under notice. It may be notedthat a preliminary essay bearing the same title was published in Footnotes to Evolution (appleton, a vol ume now out of print.
