Framed Print of 1869 Galton signature Hereditary Genius
Signed letter from London Institution and first edition frontis of Francis Galtons 1869 book Hereditary Genius'. Galton was very influenced by his cousin Charles Darwins book The Origin of Species 1859. He was inspired to look at human variation, from intelligence to fingerprints. His first interest was whether human genius was heritable. He tested this by seeing if certain families produced more eminent men than others, while later trying to control for environment and nurture. This book reports his early findings that eminence decreases with decreasing relatedness to a Genius. He would conclude that state intervention in reproduction is required to maintain human intellectual potential. This gave impetus to the Eugenics movement. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © This image is Paul D. Stewart 2009.
