Print on Demand. This book is an insightful exploration of the heated debate that followed the publication of a study on the impact of parental alcoholism on the health and intelligence of children. The author, a renowned scientist, had asserted that excessive drinking by parents could have adverse effects on their offspring, triggering a storm of criticism from the medical community. However, the author meticulously dissects the arguments of his detractors, exposing misinterpretations and statistical fallacies in their claims. Through a rigorous examination of the original study's data, the author reveals the validity of the initial findings and underscores the importance of understanding the potential hazards of parental alcohol consumption. This book is not only a testament to the resilience of scientific inquiry in the face of adversity, but also a valuable resource for anyone interested in the intricate relationship between parental behavior and child development. 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.

Sinopsis

Excerpt from An Attempt to Correct Some of the Misstatements Statements Made by Sir Victor Horsley, F. R. S., F. R. C. S., And Mary Sturge, M.D., In Their Criticisms of the Galton Laboratory, Memoir: 'A Study First Study of the Influence, of Parental Alcoholism, &C.'

In the 'conclusions' the words 'child' and 'children' are used repeatedly, and facing the conclusions are tables giving the ages Of the children considered references to the ages Of the children occur frequently in the text, and on p. 6 the average ages of the sons Of drinking and non-drinking parents are actually stated as 9-8 and 9-4 years respectively. Sir Victor Horsley and Dr. Sturge tell us under a heading Unscientific Use of Terms, that a second instance of this is our misuse Of the term Offspring'. They further go on to say that we ought at least to trace the effect of alcohol beyond the age Of 14, and that Dr. Maurice Craig has pointed out that the next two decades following the four teenth year are those during which symptoms of degeneracy usually appear.2 Why we onglet to have done what we initially excluded from the exact 'universe of discussion is not Obvious; and the only misuse Of terms that we can discover is the attempt Of our critics to foist into a word, the use Of which is expressly defined on our first page, a meaning which we had excluded from it.
The next point is our definition Of sober and 'alcoholic'.
