Prima edizione
hardcover. Condizione: good. 1912. 1st edition. Green cloth hardcover, no dust jacket, 190 pages. This book and its predecessor "The Family and the Nation" draw attention to the problem of heredity, "a conception which has hardly yet penetrated consciously into modern sociology, where the subject of environment has held hitherto almost limitless sway. We find it necessary continually to point out that improved conditions of life will not by themselves alone secure certain and corrresponding improvement in the inborn qualities of the race. Selection is also needed." Good condition except for cover scratches and corner creases, age spots, and a library code on the front flyleaf.

A transformative book exploring heredity in humans, this book draws on the latest biological research to elucidate its profound impact on society. The author argues that the natural selective pressures that shaped humanity for millennia are now being counteracted by modern civilization's diminished emphasis on natural selection. This is due to the author's assertion that the misguided humanitarianism of Western society has, paradoxically, become an obstacle to the progress of the human race. By protecting the weak and unhealthy, society unintentionally allows their genes to propagate, thereby counteracting the selective advantages of the strong and healthy. The result is a decline in the overall health and vitality of the human race. The author's insights on heredity and its influence on society are profound and significant, offering a compelling case for re-examining the way we approach social welfare and human progress. 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.
