Controlled human breeding, or \"eugenics\" as it was called, was a movement with broad support that lasted into the 1930s. In this concise historical account, the author answers the questions of why eugenics, the search for means to propagate only \"good genes,\" was so attractive earlier in the twentieth century, why it then fell into disrepute, and whether it has returned today in the new guise of genetic counseling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51876400070944,"sku":"NEW1573923435","price":21.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81uFaEPQibL.jpg?v=1781759551","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/controlling-human-heredity-1865-to-the-present-control-of-nature-1573923435","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
