The Eugenics Wars Vol. 2: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien SinghThe Eugenics Wars Vol. 2: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh

"A strange, violent period in your history." -- Spock
Many unanswered questions remain about the terrible Eugenics Wars that raged on Earth during the 1990s, an apocalyptic conflict that brought civilization to the brink of a new dark age. Centuries later, as Capt. James T. Kirk and the crew of the Starship Enterprise™ are forced to defend a colony of genetically enhanced humans against Klingon aggression and sabotage, Kirk must probe deeper into the past -- and into the glory days of one of the greatest adversaries he has ever faced.

Captain James T. Kirk must probe deep into the secrets of the past to discover the true origins of the infamous Eugenics Wars...and of the man who became perhaps the most dangerous foe he has ever had to face. In 1974 an international consortium of scientists embarked on the Chrysalis Project, a top-secret experiment in human genetic engineering. Their goal is no less than the creation of a new, artifically improved breed of men and women: smarter, faster, stronger than ordinary human beings -- a super-race to take command of the entire planet.

In Modernism and Eugenics, Donald Childs reveals how Virginia Woolf, T.S. Eliot, and W.B. Yeats believed in eugenics, the science of racial improvement, and adapted this scientific discourse to the language and purposes of the modern imagination. He traces the impact of the eugenics movement on such modernist works as Mrs. Dalloway, The Waste Land, and Yeats's late poetry and early plays.
