The Super Race: An American Problem is a book written by Scott Nearing and published in 1912. The book explores the concept of eugenics and the idea of creating a ''super race'' through selective breeding and sterilization. Nearing argues that such practices are not only morally wrong, but also scientifically flawed and ultimately harmful to society. He examines the history of eugenics and its roots in social Darwinism, and critiques the arguments made by proponents of the movement. The book also discusses the role of race and ethnicity in eugenics, and the ways in which these ideas were used to justify discrimination and oppression. Overall, The Super Race is a powerful critique of eugenics and a call to reject the idea of a ''super race'' in favor of a more inclusive and compassionate society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
