Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poverty and Hereditary Genius: A Criticism of Mr. Francis Galton's Theory of Hereditary Genius This new departure would appear to constitute a distinct phase in the evolution of man. And the reason for so unique a development is not far to seek. During the last half-century the command of man over not only the material but the forces of nature, has advanced so greatly that the possible output of labour for each individual has been increased perhaps tenfold. But it is also fact that for any individual to produce his full output of labour, he must be what we term educated.

Book excerpt: As the author later said, this book's title should have been "Hereditary Ability." This pioneering work in the study of hereditary and human ability laid the groundwork for the science of eugenics, inheritance and intelligence studies. Galton's methodology consisted of making a list of eminent people and their extended relations to determine how many prominent relatives they had. If genius was hereditary, Galton reasoned, there should be more eminent people among the relatives than among the general population. He also proposed a number of methods to separate the effects of heredity and environment, which included adoption studies and trans-racial adoption studies. The conclusion to which all the data propelled Galton was that intelligence was clearly hereditary. A groundbreaking work, now despised, but as valid as the day it was written.

Book excerpt: I have no patience with the hypothesis occasionally expressed, and often implied, especially in tales written to teach children to be good, that babies are born pretty much alike, and that the sole agencies in creating differences between boy and boy, and man and man, are steady application and moral effort. It is in the most unqualified manner that I object to pretensions of natural equality. The experiences of the nursery, the school, the University, and of professional careers, are a chain of proofs to the contrary.-from "Classification of Men According to Their Natural Gifts"One of the greatest names in Victorian science, Francis Galton has been all but forgotten in the popular culture, but his work on philosophy of genetics and the inheritability of human characteristics broke new ground in the late 19th century. With this 1869 book (along with his 1889 work Natural Inheritance), he founded an entirely new scientific discipline, one that approached human biology with a systematic rigor as he explored the degree of "eminence" among British men and determined that intelligence and accomplishment were inheritable. Though some of Galton's work has been dismissed because of its causal connection to the deplorable applications of eugenics programs in the 20th century, this remains an important work in the history of biological science. "I do not think I ever in all my life read anything more interesting and original" Charles Darwin said about this extraordinary book.Among his many significant accomplishments, British scientist SIR FRANCIS GALTON (1822-1911) was an explorer, a geographer, a statistician, and inventor of fingerprint identification. In addition to more than 300 scientific papers, he wrote the books Narrative of an Explorer in Tropical South Africa (1853), Finger Prints (1893), Memories of My Life (1908), and others.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hereditary Genius: An Inquiry Its Laws and Consequences I trust the reader will pardon a small percentage of error and inaccuracy, if it be so small as not to affect the general value of my results. NO one can hate inaccuracy more than myself, or can have a higher idea of what an author owes to his readers, in respect to precision but, in a subject like this, it is exceedingly difficult to correct every mistake, and still more so to avoid omissions. I have often had to run my eyes over many pages of large bio graphical dictionaries and volumes of memoirs to arrive at data, destined to be packed into half a dozen lines, in an appendix to one of my many chapters. The theory of hereditary genius, though usually scouted, has been advocated by a few writers in past as well as in modern times. But I may claim to be the first to treat the subject in a statistical manner, to arrive at numerical results, and to introduce the law Of deviation from an average into discussions on heredity. A great many subjects are discussed in the following pages, which go beyond the primary issue, -whether or no genius be hereditary. I could not refuse to consider them, because the bearings of the theory I advocate are too important to be passed over in silence.
