Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking study challenges the conventional wisdom about the nature of inheritance and the role it plays in human development. Fowler argues that the key to improving the human race lies in understanding the laws of heredity and applying this knowledge to selective breeding. Drawing on his extensive experience as a phrenologist, Fowler presents a compelling case for a new science of human improvement, and outlines a bold vision for a future where intelligence and virtue are hereditary traits.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hereditary Descent: Its Laws and Facts, Illustrated and Applied to the Improvement of Mankind; With Hints to Woman N. B. As facts of this kind are the main items of value, and as they are so abundant as to be within the observation and memory of every reader, the author solicits the communication of striking and well authenticated facts of this class, especially from Phrenologists and from mothers, particularly those facts which evince changes in children of different ages, analogous to those to which the parents, during the augmentation of their families, were subject. Mothers, especially, who can trace their own peculiari ties of feeling in the dispositions of their children, will do goodby relating their own experience, as guides and warnings to those who are inexperienced in this matter.

Book excerpt: A cousin of Charles Darwin, Francis Galton (1822-1911) was so impressed by Darwin's On the Origin of Species that he decided to investigate in detail the implications of inheritance and evolution for the development of outstanding human abilities. By "hereditary genius" Galton meant, "an ability that was exceptionally high and at the same time inborn," and he argued that in the debate over "nature versus nurture" (an expression that he coined) nature always prevails. In 1869, he published this, his first, book on the topic, presenting a good deal of evidence showing that exceptional ability often ran in families. In separate chapters devoted to outstanding professionals ranging from English judges to "wrestlers of the North Country," Galton pointed out that most of these high achievers had relatives who also displayed notable abilities. Based on this statistical sampling, he concluded that eminence in any field was due to hereditary factors. Many greeted these results with skepticism, but Charles Darwin expressed his admiration for Galton's results and later cited his work in The Descent of Man. Galton went on to use this initial research as the basis for a new field, which he called "eugenics," the aim of which was "the betterment of the human race" through "appropriate marriages or abstention from marriage." Although Galton's ideas gained momentum over several decades, they were eventually discredited after being misappropriated by the Nazis as part of their racist ideology. Today, however, with the discovery of heritable diseases, the use of genetic screening to eliminate undesirable traits, sperm banks, and the possibility of "designer babies" and human cloning, Galton's groundbreaking research has gained renewed currency and will be the subject of debate for years to come.
