| Summary | "Woman and Womanhood: A Search for Principles" by C. W. Saleeby is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book explores the biological and eugenic roles of women, arguing for the importance of women’s contributions to the future generations of humanity. The author aims to establish principles that highlight the significance of motherhood and the selection of women in shaping societal progress. The opening of the text presents Saleeby's argument that women are not only pivotal as individuals in the current generation but also essential for future generations. He posits that, contrary to popular belief, the selection of mothers is as critical as that of fathers in contributing to the development of the human race. Through a biological lens, Saleeby contends that women serve as Nature's supreme organ for future generations and underscores the importance of recognizing and prioritizing the role of motherhood in societal evolution. The author calls out contemporary feminists for neglecting the vital connection between womanhood and eugenics, framing his advocacy as one that ultimately serves both women and the future of humanity.
