BALYEED RUSSEL WALLACE, famed translator of Darwin, argues natural selection cannot apply to humans. He says mental and moral traits shape development, not heredity alone, and urges moral social reform and women’s freedom to improve the race. He condemns current society as worst the world has seen.
The essay argues that natural selection no longer fixes society and that eugenic reforms may help raise the race. It critiques state interference in marriage and contends a selective marriage system could gradually improve human traits by weeding out weaker lines while preserving higher qualities. It references Galton, wealth inequality, and the need to balance freedom with social progress.
