Dr. Benjamin Goldberg's copy of this now-notorious "scientific" analysis of heredity. Goldberg was Chief of Psychiatry at the Child & Parent Resource Institute in London, Ontario, from 1960 to 1965. He made a vow to protect people with disabilities after experiencing victimization during World War II. Arguably, the kind of thinking that produced this book about the racial differences in mankind was what led to those atrocities.
