The Blood Of The Nation

Über The Blood Of The Nation

The Blood of the Nation is a book written by David Starr Jordan and published in 1903. It is a study of the decay of races through the survival of the unfit. Jordan argues that the decline of nations is due to the survival of the weak and inferior members of the population, who reproduce and pass on their weaknesses to future generations. He believes that the strong and superior members of society should be encouraged to reproduce, while the weak and inferior should be prevented from doing so. Jordan uses examples from history and biology to support his arguments, and he also discusses the role of eugenics in improving the quality of the human race. The book is controversial and has been criticized for its promotion of eugenics and its racist undertones. However, it is also considered an important work in the history of evolutionary theory and the study of human genetics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
