This is a highly readable and well put together introduction to eugenics's past and to its present. Overall, Rutherford writes engagingly and expertly on a subject that is central to his research and the place where he practises it (UCL, Rutherford's university, was at the forefront of early 20th century eugenics research). For me, the book is most interesting on the state of eugenics thinking today as Rutherford explains and unpacks some of the complicated moral quandaries now faced by the medical profession and parents alike when it comes to things like so-called designer babies. Above all what he brings out is the deep complexity of the science which makes our media-filtered understanding of the topic seem too simplistic for words.
There are just a few occasions (most notably in the historical section) when Rutherford's style can be too chummy and once or twice he could do with defining terms more clearly but overall this is an excellent introdution to a compley and emotive topic

Author

James Ross (Hellfire Hero) is a one-of-a-kind, dream-pursuing, robust, most victorious, and visionary author, who furthermore operates Hellfire Hero, his digital concept art sole proprietorship on the side of his authorship. To Fly Above the Flames will be his first published novel; however, he is recognized for selling multiple pieces corresponding to his seven years of work in the community. His unforgettable passion is to dream, to be a digital concept artist and a writer, clearly self-expressive with resilience to remain unstoppable, with honor, heroism, and grace gripped to his very heart. Born and raised in Andover, Minnesota, James adapted his creative and determined principles from multiple challenging endeavours, and convoluted changes in his creative process furthered introspection. At the heart of it all he was inspired to finally strive for success with a definitive goal to bring his desire to inspire humanity and himself to fruition through creative identity, and attaining a fresh start as a committed author. Furthermore, he still remains engaged in digital concept art with Hellfire Hero. He resides peacefully in Fridley, Minnesota, loving fashion, fitness, space in general, nature, all forms of art, and is heavily intrigued by science fiction and fantasy works. He is also a very critical thinker and enjoys critiquing other works of literature.
