Excerpt from Darwinism and Race Progress In 1890 I gave a lecture to the Edinburgh Health Society, which appeared as No. 2 of their Eleventh Series. Its title is "The Importance of Ideals of Health, Beauty, etc., in Race Progress." Much the same thesis considerably expanded was given by me in the form of three Milroy Lectures to the Royal College of Physicians of London in March, 1894, and appeared at the time almost verbatim in the Lancet.

"Darwinism and Race Progress" provides a historical outlook on the evolutionary progression of the human species. As the author explains, "We are dealing in the following pages with race rather than nation; with muscle, blood and brain, rather than with political power and influence; let us turn then to history in order to find out whether or not organic deterioration must actually close the history of every race, for if this is the case, our studies of racial change, though of none the less intellectual interest, will have lost their promise of practical utility..."

A superb treatise in evolution and eugenics from one of Britain's leading professors of physiology and discoverer of the anti-coagulant hirudin. Professor Haycraft discusses race, Darwin's Law of Selection, Galton's work, and the hereditary nature of diseases, insanity, alcoholism, crime and racial degeneration. He moves on to detail healthy eugenics, the outbreeding of the "capables" by the "incapables" and the necessity for the best in society to expand their numbers at the expense of the worst. CONTENTS CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTORY Muscle and Brain versus Political Organisation CHAPTER II: THE STANDPOINT OF BIOLOGISTS Lamarck's View on Heredity-Darwin's Law of Selection-Three Ideas involved in Selection-The Facts of Evolutive Selection known to the Gardener and Breeder CHAPTER III: CAUSES AND SIGNS OF PHYSICAL DETERIORATION Modern Care for the Individual-Preventive Medicine-Physical Degeneration of the Race already indicated CHAPTER IV: INSANITY AND ALCOHOLISM Nerve Derangements, Insanity-Marriages of Insane Persons-Alcoholism a Habit, and Alcoholism a Sign of Mental Instability-How it is that the Production of Children by Diseased Parents is tolerated-The Necessity for producing Posterity out of our Best Types CHAPTER V: THE CRIMINALS, INCAPABLES, AND THOSE IN DISTRESS Crime is often an Acquired Habit-The Innate Criminal-The Jukes Family-Intermarriage does not stamp out Criminal Tendencies-Segregation ultimately required for their Elimination-Incapables to be treated like Chronic Hospital Patients CHAPTER VI: COMPETITION Competition of Brain against Brain-Does the Race show Increased Brain Capacity ?- Modern Democratic Attempts to equalise the Struggle-Those who succeed are not always the Best CHAPTER VII: STERILITY OF THE CAPABLES Are the More Capable relatively sterile ?-If so, we are breeding from our Incapables-Capable and Ambitious Men marry Late in Life-Possible Swamping of the Capables by the Incapables-Artificial Restrictions at present most disastrous CHAPTER VIII: OBLIGATION IN PARENTHOOD Are we prepared to carry out Selective Methods?-Rights of the Individual, and Obligations to the.

This collection is an interdisciplinary edited volume that examines the circulation of Darwinian ideas in the Atlantic space as they impacted systems of Western thought and culture. Specifically, the book explores the influence of the principle tenets of Darwinism -- such as the theory of evolution, the ape-man theory of human origins, and the principle of sexual selection -- on established transatlantic intellectual traditions and cultural practices. In doing so, it pays particular attention to how Darwinism reconfigured discourses on race, gender, and sexuality in a transnational context. Covering the period from the publication of The Origin of Species (1859) to 1933, when the Nazis (National Socialist Party) took power in Germany, the essays demonstrate the dissemination of Darwinian thought in the Western world in an unprecedented commerce of ideas not seen since the Protestant Reformation. Learned societies, literary groups, lyceums, and churches among other sites for public discourse sponsored lectures on the implications of Darwin’s theory of evolution for understanding the very ontological codes by which individuals ordered and made sense of their lives. Collectively, these gatherings reflected and constituted what the contributing scholars to this volume view as the discursive power of the cultural politics of Darwinism.

Traces the development of racial hygiene theory and eugenics research in Germany from the end of the 19th century through the Third Reich. Discusses particularly the work of Alfred Ploetz, a leading propagator of racial hygiene, and his anti-Jewish views. It was argued that German medical science had fallen prey to the "Jewish spirit" and was thus in need of reform. Argues that the biological, medical, and anthropological variants of racism were not only concerned with antisemitism but also influenced Nazi health and social policy. Eugenicists of Jewish origin became victims of the system they had helped to construct. Analyzes how racial hygiene theories were incorporated into Hitler's racial antisemitism and became the basis for the Nazi sterilization and euthanasia programs which, in turn, became the basis for the mass murder of the Jews.

Dr. Miklos Nyiszli, an imprisoned doctor in the Auschwitz camp, wrote that Nazi doctors hoped studying twins would solve the problem of faster reproduction of superior races. Nazis hoped to have each German mother bear as many twins as possible.What Darwin influenced went far beyond the Nazi death camps: Shocking political, social, and scientific legacies of Darwin and his familyDisturbing disclosure of how over 45 million Christians were killed in the 20th century because of their faithRevealing and layman-friendly presentation. This book is the result of 30 years of research and study carefully documenting the common destructive threads that tie some of history’s most murderous dictators, uncaring capitalists, and aggressive social activists to the flawed concepts of Charles Darwin in an effort to change the world — and how they succeeded. The extermination of races considered “lower” than others, the profound lack of empathy for less-advanced cultures, the corrupted atheistic justifications for taking the lives of millions — all done to advance the agendas of social Darwinism at work in the world today. More than mere theoretical discussions, we have seen the horrifying evidence of the practical results when applying these destructive and misleading concepts to society in the last 100 years!

Haller (history, medical humanities, Southern Illinois U.) examines the scientific "proof" of racial inferiority in the US during the period between the 1859 publication of Darwin's Origin of Species and the discovery in 1900 of Gregor Mendel's experiments with genetics, in this reprint of a work first published in 1971 by University of Illinois Press. He shows how scientists sought to apply evolutionary ideas to morality, health, and the physiognomy of nonwhite races, and looks at the relationship between scientific theories and public policy.

This innovative collection of original essays focuses on the ways in which geography, gender, race, and religion influenced the reception of Darwinism in the English-speaking world of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The contributions to this volume collectively illustrate the importance of local social, physical, and religious arrangements, while revealing that neither distance from Darwin's home at Down nor size of community greatly influenced how various regions responded to Darwinism. Essays spanning the world from Great Britain and North America to Australia and New Zealand explore the various meanings for Darwinism in these widely separated locales, while other chapters focus on the difference it made in the debates over evolution.
