Biologie fur hohere Schulen
, (Biology for secondary schools) by Jakob Graf, Copyright 1940 by J.F. Lehmanns, Munich. 1st ed. Language: German. 6 x 8.5", 176pp incl. index.
Appears to be based on his earlier work, "Heredity and Racial Biology For Students", copyright 1935, and an example of how young people were indoctrinated with racist ideology in WWII Germany.
First half is standard human biology and anthropology, then strays into a discussion of the supposed "low races" like the Jews and Africans.
Also contains exhortations on keeping your Gernam blood pure. The photo of the idealized Aryan woman contains a poem by Will Vesper that translates: "Keep your blood pure./It's not just yours./It comes far./It flows far./It is heavy with a thousand ancestors, /and all future flows in it. /Keep the robe of your immortality clean."
There's also an illustration of the propaganda poster: 'Hier traegst Du mit' [Here you Contribute], with the text: “You Are Sharing the Load! A Hereditarily Ill Person Costs 50,000 Reichmarks on Average by the time he reaches the age of Sixty”. Illustrating how the Law for the Prevention of Offspring with so-called Hereditary Diseases was popularized among the population.
Condition Good+ Hinges intact but one separation of the binding between the copyright and table of contents page only. Rest of binding good. Light toning to some pages. No marks within. Boards with paper picture cover show some light edgewear and rubbing along spine along with some light soiling but no serious damage. Interior nice.
