The term ‘Eugenics’ literally means ‘good creation’ and was first coined by Sir Francis Galton in 1883 in his book ‘Inquiries into Human Faculty and Its Development’. Prior to this concept, Charles Darwin had put forward his theory of ‘Natural Selection’ and ‘Survival of the fittest’. The evolution of human beings on this planet over billions of years is a result of the consistent understanding and exploitation of science. Unlike the oppressive use of the understanding of eugenics during the World War II, a fair and productive analysis of these theories in the present time suggests that the betterment of the human civilization may be possible by positive science and non-discriminatory application.
