The question of heredity is one of vital concern to every living being, and any light thrown on the subject by scientific investigations and experiments is of momentous interest to the human race. It is therefore of the utmost importance that every one should have some knowledge of the theories advanced by those who believe in the immutability of the laws of heredity, and also how far these have been proven modifiable by environment and education.
The present volume is a discussion of the entire subject, covering a much wider area than the author’s “The Principles of Heredity,” and presenting the facts and arguments in a scholarly and yet clear and non-technical manner; the aim being to make it comprehensible to the general reader, as well as to the scientific investigator.
