Hoes van G. K. Chesterton: Eugenics and Other Evils (ePUB)

When the concept of eugenics — the practice of selecting for desirable traits in the larger population by encouraging gifted and/or attractive people to breed — began to take hold in the early twentieth century, British thinker and writer G.K. Chesterton took a stance contrary to that of many intellectuals of the period and denounced it as evil in this bold, engaging series of essays.
