Re: Eugenics.
The term eugenics is and has been used to mean the purification of race. Throughout the twentieth century people, have used medical skill in an attempt to remove all impurities from the human race to create a pure breed of humans. Mary Dendy for example believed that people with disability should not be allowed to breed and established hospitals in which people could be segregated from mainstream society, these hospitals only closed in the late eighties after sixty years of existence. Mendez the Nazi Scientist experimented with human foetus to examine the causes of disability, this was invariably fatal to the mother and the child.
