    Summary:

    This prophetic volume counters the intellectual nihilism of Nietzsche, while simultaneously rebuking Western notions of progress, biological or otherwise. Chesterton expands his criticism of eugenics into what he calls "a more general criticism of the modern craze for scientific officialism and strict social organization."
