Being Well-Born: An Introduction to Eugenics
Michael F. Guyer
“The writer recalls that when he was a young boy, he heard the grown-up
people in the community earnestly and incessantly debating the question:
Does heredity play a greater part in shaping one’s mind and body than does
his environment? From that day to this he has listened to men and women in
every walk of life discussing the relation of heredity to environment in
determining human traits. Teachers and parents are constantly asking: “Are
such and such characteristics in my children due to their inheritance or
to the way they have been trained?”
