Eugenics is a term referring to the science of improving the racial qualities of humanity through selective breeding of superior types. It was first used by the British scientist Francis Galton in 1883. Galton studied evolution and explored how hereditary traits were passed on from generation to generation. An example of this is when Galton attempted to determine "The Face of Crime". Galton combined sets of twelve photographs to form an "ideal type" for criminals.
