Grant Hague is a comprehensive guide on eugenics, specifically addressing the science of human reproduction and health with a focus on sex hygiene, written in the early 20th century. The book seeks to enlighten parents and young individuals about the implications of sexual health and the importance of informed marriage choices to promote a healthier future generation. At the start of the volume, the focus is primarily on sex hygiene, detailing the consequences of venereal diseases like gonorrhea and syphilis, particularly on young boys, and emphasizing the responsibility of parents to educate their children about these issues. The opening chapters stress the importance of honest communication regarding sexual health, the dangers of ignorance, and the need for proper guidance to combat the societal challenges surrounding immorality and health. The author advocates for a proactive approach to teaching young people about their bodies and the implications tied to reproductive health, framing eugenics as a crucial element for societal betterment.
