Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the science of eugenics, a field that emerged in the early 20th century, and its practical implications for national well-being. The author uses detailed statistical analyses and historical examples to argue that the seemingly benevolent goal of improving societal conditions through social reforms often has unintended and detrimental consequences. The book explores how legislation aimed at improving the lives of working-class families, particularly those in industrial centers, unintentionally undermined the economic value of children and ultimately discouraged reproduction. The author goes on to explore the unintended consequences of this trend, arguing that it leads to a shift in the population, with a higher proportion of degenerate and physically weaker members. The author underscores the need for a more nuanced approach to social policy, one that considers the long-term biological impact of environmental changes, and promotes the economic value of healthy and capable offspring. Ultimately, this book challenges readers to re-evaluate conventional notions of social progress and consider the importance of promoting a healthier and more sustainable future for the nation. 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. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781332276110_0
