Viac o knihe
Exploring the intersection of Darwinian theory and human traits, Francis Galton's work laid the groundwork for the concept of eugenics. He posited that just as physical characteristics could be influenced by natural selection, so too could mental qualities. By compiling a list of 'notable persons,' Galton aimed to demonstrate the heritability of intelligence and excellence. This edition of his influential essay, originally published in 1865, reflects a time when such ideas were considered legitimate science, before later being labeled as 'pseudo-science.'
