Eugenics and Other Evils edition by G K Chesterton Politics Social Sciences eBooks
I'm giving up on this book about half way through. I know many people love G. K. Chesterton, but I find some of his reasoning difficult to follow, even flawed. This may be the result differences in the use of language over the past century.Physically the book appears to be printed on demand, when you order it. The paper and cover are good quality, but the typesetting has some gaps, the most serious gap is that the pages are not numbered, making proper reference to passages difficult.
I appreciate efforts to reprint old work, but these reprints should do more that just print the raw text. Copyrights, even expired ones, are useful. Original publication information, page numbers, indexes, etc are all useful and should be included. Sadly, this version does not have any of these features.

Eugenics and Other Evils edition by G K Chesterton Politics Social Sciences eBooks Reviews
Great as indicated, a malady of sort one has to deal with
a interesting take on the topic that has both sides together in a very insightful way
We are great fans of Chesterton so this was an excellent addition to our collection. As usual delivered in a flash.
After completing Michael Creighton's book, Next, I scanned his resources much to my surprise, he listed this book by Chesterton. I cannot enhance Creighton's comments in this review, but can state that G. K. Chesterton, a man with a remarkable gift of memory and humor and insight and wisdom, did us all a service (albeit 90 years ago) by penning this book. This one is not theological (as in The Everlasting Man), poetic (The Ballad of the White Horse), or in the form of a novel or short stories (all of which he wrote during his lifetime, such as the Father Brown mysteries, The Man Who Was Thursday, etc.). This book touches on life in the 21st Century in the United States of America from topics ranging from political correctness, to genetics and eugenics, to ecology and the environment, to evolution, and even to the topic of whether smoking should be banned.
I've often pondered whether the United States has ever produced its own Chesterton (perhaps Will Rogers; but he did not write at the same depth or level as Chesterton, though his observations were always laced with humor). Notwithstanding, we should not miss Chesterton's messages.
Would that our press corps and educators and political pundits learn from him.
This rambling review will benefit no one; the benefit will only come if those who bother to read comments as mine buy the book and savor its delights.
This is a very informative read. Eugenics is a very touchy subject but this book gives a good
all-around view of all the other aspects of Eugenics - namely where are the boundaries of
"Big Government and what "policies" should government be "allowed to dictate" and what
should they NOT be allowed to dictate.
Another GREAT read for this subject is "Fight For Your Health Inside the FDA's Betrayal of America" by
Byron J. Richards. This ia a great book that also outlines "Big Government", "Big Pharma",
the "Food Industry" and the "Diet Industry." This book ALSO tells about the United States
eugenics activities around the turn of the century - long before Adolf Hitler started in WWII.
A thoughtful read for anybody who likes a well-rounded point of view.
Almost terrifyingly applicable to current times, and well written.
I've been recommending it to friends and family.
I found it quite surprising, how many of the arguments are still relevant today. Eugenics may not be as openly advocated as it was in 1913, but some aspects of the philosophy are afoot today in other guise. Not to mention the general busybody interference of the state in private affairs for the citizen's own good. And Chesterton has an interesting take on social problems and both Capitalist and Socialist thoughts on them.
I'm giving up on this book about half way through. I know many people love G. K. Chesterton, but I find some of his reasoning difficult to follow, even flawed. This may be the result differences in the use of language over the past century.
Physically the book appears to be printed on demand, when you order it. The paper and cover are good quality, but the typesetting has some gaps, the most serious gap is that the pages are not numbered, making proper reference to passages difficult.
