The Revolt Against Civilization: The Menace of the Under-Man (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781410207883)

The author rails against the moronic, rebellious, Bolshevik Under Men of the world and suggests "world eugenics" to remedy their impending takeover and the ruin of civilization. Stoddard's arguments were once taken seriously by the American establishment and President Warren G. Harding publicly praised eugenicist Lothrop Stoddard's book, The Rising Tide of Color, at a public speech on 26 October 1922. A Harvard Ph.D in history, Lothrop Stoddard was the author of The Rising Tide of Color and other works that played a key role in the enactment of America's 1924 immigration act. Margaret Sanger appointed Lothrop Stoddard as a board member of the Birth Control League (the forerunner of Planned Parenthood). This work is important original source material for historians and scholarly researchers.
