Like all other human activities, science has been subject to political misinterpretations throughout history.
Adam Rutherford is a British geneticist, science communicator, and broadcaster who has written several popular science books, including How to Argue with a Racist.
In Control, Rutherford tackles the history of eugenics, an ideology that aimed to provide scientific grounds for some of the most racist political systems in the 19th and 20th centuries.
