Cooper. The Plot of Eugenic Nation: Faults and Frontiers of Better Breeding in Modern America The book "Eugenic Nation: Faults and Frontiers of Better Breeding in Modern America" by Richard J. Cooper delves into the history of eugenics, a pseudoscientific theory that aimed to improve the human race through selective breeding, sterilization, and other forms of genetic manipulation. The author explores how this flawed ideology has shaped American society, particularly in the early 20th century, and how it continues to influence contemporary issues such as reproductive rights, genetic testing, and the ethics of medical research. The book begins by examining the origins of eugenics in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when it was promoted as a means of improving the human race through selective breeding and sterilization. The author highlights the role of prominent figures such as Francis Galton, who coined the term "eugenics and Alexander Graham Bell, who advocated for the forced sterilization of people deemed "unfit.
Купер. The Plot of Eugenic Nation: Faults and Frontiers of Better Breeding in Modern America Книга Ричарда Дж. Купера «Eugenic Nation: Faults and Frontiers of Better Breeding in Modern America» посвящена истории евгеники - псевдонаучной теории, целью которой было улучшение человеческой расы путём селекции, стерилизации и других форм генетических манипуляций. Автор исследует, как эта ошибочная идеология сформировала американское общество, особенно в начале 20-го века, и как она продолжает влиять на современные проблемы, такие как репродуктивные права, генетическое тестирование и этика медицинских исследований. Книга начинается с изучения истоков евгеники в конце XIX - начале XX века, когда она пропагандировалась как средство улучшения человеческого рода посредством селективного разведения и стерилизации. Автор выделяет роль видных деятелей, таких как Фрэнсис Гальтон, придумавший термин "евгеника" и Александр Грэм Белл, выступавший за принудительную стерилизацию людей, признанных "непригодными.
