Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the assumption that human nature is incompatible with regulating marriage. The authorâs journey through history reveals that marriage restrictions have been implemented successfully through religious edict, custom, and law. In discussing these marital boundaries, the author doesnât merely concentrate on the issue of polygamy. Instead, they explore endogamy, exogamy, Australian marriages, taboo, prohibited degrees, and celibacy. Their research reveals that opposition to non-eugenic unions could become as strong as the revulsion many feel today towards incestuous relationships. These assessments are particularly persuasive given the authorâs assertion that immaterial factorsâ"religion, tradition, superstition, and lawâ"have consistently exerted more influence over marriage selection than material ones.
