The '''English Eugenics Society''' was founded to apply the idea of [[evolution]] to the human race.  The term "[[eugenics]]" was coined by the English scientist [[Francis Galton]] in 1883, and he advocated that future generations of humans could be improved through encouraging the "best" in society to have more children. [[Charles Darwin]]'s son, Leonard, heartily promoted Galton's proposals in the 1920s and became director of the English Eugenics Society.<ref>http://www.eugenicsarchive.org/html/eugenics/static/themes/14.html</ref>
