Originally published in 1960, The Future of Man is a chronicle of
Professor Medwar's Reith lectures of 1959. The book outlines his
predictions about the future estate of man, with the 'process of
foretelling, rather than with what is actually foretold'. He asks,
can we predict the future size of populations? What is the evidence
and theoretical background for the belief that human intelligence
is declining? Could human beings become uniformly excellent or is
inborn diversity and inequality a necessary part of the texture of
human populations? The lectures tried to answer these questions and
attempts to end with a definition of the biological standing of
man. This book will be of interest to anthropologists, biologists
and natural historians.
