Excerpt from Jewish Eugenics, and Other Essays; Three Papers Read Before the New York Board of Jewish Ministers, 1915
Who knows the cause of Israel's survival? Why did the Jew survive the onslaughts of Time, when others, numerically and politically stronger, succumbed? Obedience to the Law of Life, declares the modern student of eugenics, was the saving quality which rendered the Jewish race immune from disease and destruction. "The Jews, ancient and modern," says Dr. Stanton Coit, "have always understood the science of eugenics, and have governed themselves in accordance with it; hence the preservation of the Jewish race."
To be sure eugenics as a science could hardly have existed among the ancient Jews; but many eugenic rules were certainly incorporated in the large collection of Biblical and Rabbinical laws.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. In the realm of ancient Jewish Law and Literature, this book explores the complex treatment of those struggling with mental and physical disabilities. Examining the dichotomy between the Talmud's approach to physical reality (Halacha) and its symbolic interpretation (Aggadah), the author explores the underlying philosophies that governed the integration of people with physical and mental disabilities during the period. By comparing the Aggadah's ethical interpretations of disability with the Halacha's legal framework, this book sheds light on how ancient Jewish societies understood their obligations toward the less fortunate. Through examining the attitudes of the ancient rabbis, the author invites contemporary readers to reflect upon our own understanding and treatment of individuals with disabilities.
