About this work
Description
"Eugenics (human ecology) has always understood itself to be part of the struggle for human rights--those of future generations. Rejecting absolutely all taboos, John Glad here lays out the eugenic thrust of traditional Jewish culture and shows how Zionism itself was conceived as a grand eugenic plan."--P. [4] of cover.
