Hereditary Genius And Inquiries Into Human Faculty And Its Development - Francis Galton - Bog

Hereditary Genius And Inquiries Into Human Faculty And Its Development is a book written by Francis Galton, a British polymath and cousin of Charles Darwin. The book explores the concept of inherited intelligence and the factors that contribute to it. Galton argues that intelligence is largely determined by genetics, and that certain individuals and families are predisposed to higher levels of intellectual ability. Galton also delves into the study of human faculties, including memory, perception, and reasoning, and how they develop over time. He examines the role of environment and education in shaping these faculties, but ultimately concludes that genetics plays the most significant role in determining an individual's intellectual potential. First published in 1869, Hereditary Genius And Inquiries Into Human Faculty And Its Development was a groundbreaking work in the field of psychology and had a significant impact on the study of intelligence and genetics. Despite its controversial nature, the book remains an important contribution to the ongoing debate about the nature versus nurture debate in the study of human intelligence.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1869 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
