{"product_id":"a-human-garden-paul-andr-rosental-9781789205435","title":"A Human Garden: French Policy and the Transatlantic Legacies of Eugenic Experimentation","description":"\u003cp\u003e Well into the 1980s, Strasbourg, France, was the site of a curious and little-noted experiment: Ungemach, a garden city dating back to the high days of eugenic experimentation that offered luxury living to couples who were deemed biologically fit and committed to contractual childbearing targets. Supported by public authorities, Ungemach aimed to accelerate human evolution by increasing procreation among eugenically selected parents. In this fascinating history, Paul-André Rosental gives an account of Ungemach's origins and its perplexing longevity. He casts a troubling light on the influence that eugenics continues to exert-even decades after being discredited as a pseudoscience-in realms as diverse as developmental psychology, postwar policymaking, and liberal-democratic ideals of personal fulfilment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul-André Rosental\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789205433\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789205435\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Berghahn Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 248\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.11lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2020","brand":"Paul-André Rosental","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45064645017855,"sku":"9781789205435","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8b8341e2-e689-41bb-8502-2cc6cd180d9e.jpg?v=1712124735","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-human-garden-paul-andr-rosental-9781789205435","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
