Jukes-Edwards: A Study In Education And Heredity is a book written by Albert Edward Winship and published in 1900. The book is about the Jukes and Edwards families and their descendants, who were known for their criminal behavior and poor education. Winship examines the role of heredity and environment in shaping the lives of these families and argues that education can break the cycle of poverty and crime. The book is divided into five parts, with the first part providing a detailed history of the Jukes family and their descendants. The second part focuses on the Edwards family and their descendants, and the third part compares the two families. The fourth part examines the role of education in shaping the lives of the Jukes and Edwards families, while the fifth part discusses the implications of the study for education and social policy.Throughout the book, Winship uses statistical data and case studies to support his arguments. He also draws on the work of other researchers in the field of heredity and education. The book was influential in its time and contributed to the development of the eugenics movement, which sought to improve the genetic quality of the human population through selective breeding and sterilization.Overall, Jukes-Edwards: A Study In Education And Heredity is a thought-provoking and controversial book that raises important questions about the relationship between heredity, environment, and education. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of education, eugenics, and social policy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
