War's Aftermath

War's Aftermath is a book written by David Starr Jordan in 1914. It is a preliminary study of the eugenics of war, which examines the effects of war on the genetic makeup of a population. The book uses the Civil War of the United States and the late wars in the Balkans as case studies to illustrate the impact of war on the physical and mental health of soldiers and civilians. Jordan argues that war has a negative impact on the gene pool of a population and that the eugenic consequences of war should be taken into account when considering the costs and benefits of armed conflict. The book is a thought-provoking exploration of the long-term effects of war on human populations, and it remains relevant today as we continue to grapple with the consequences of armed conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
