Parenthood and Race Culture: An Outline of Eugenics

Chapter 26: INDEX OF NAMES
Open in WeRead

About This Book

This work presents a systematic introduction to eugenics, defining it as selection for parenthood grounded in heredity and arguing for a broad practical scope that combines scientific, social, and ethical concerns. It surveys principles of heredity and the public-health measures that affect prospective parents, highlights transmissible harms and environmental toxins as threats to future generations, and outlines practical interventions in maternal care, education, and policy. The author frames eugenics as a discipline that should judge proposals solely by their effects on offspring while addressing moral and political objections to such measures.
