Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Third and Fourth Generation: An Introduction to Heredity
This book is intended primarily for young people. They can most readily break away from the whims and prejudices of the past and adopt a new set of ideas as adequate grounds for new habits. They live only in this scientific age when we have an increasing respect for facts, reason on them to correct conclusions, and base on them our sense of duty. They are practical optimists, and what seems an impossible dream of the visionary to an Older generation, hide bound by preconceived notions and social traditions, comes to be, for valorous youth, a simple accomplishment dictated by good sense.
