Eugenics and Other Evils - Book by Gilbert Keith Chesterton

Name: Eugenics and Other Evils
Author: Gilbert Keith Chesterton

In Eugenics and Other Evils, Gilbert Keith Chesterton critiques the eugenics movement, which was gaining popularity in the early 20th century. Chesterton condemns eugenics as a dangerous and unethical practice, arguing that it infringes upon individual rights and reflects a misguided attempt to "improve" humanity. Through a series of satirical essays, he exposes the moral and social dangers of eugenic thinking, warning that such policies could lead to the oppression of the vulnerable and the destruction of social harmony. The work advocates for respect for human dignity, traditional values, and the importance of diversity in society, arguing that eugenics is a form of social engineering that undermines true human progress.
