The study of the improvement of human functioning and well-being by improvement of living conditions.

This is my great Interest: Euthenics. This great and worthy study combines my great interests in Health, Public Health, Psychology, Sociology and Architecture. The Health and Sociological implications of the architectural landscape we have built for ourselves is only now becoming evident in the hospitals, prisons and welfare roles of "The Great America". Let us not hope that that phrase joins the rolls of the fallen empires of history, Egyptian, Roman, Ottoman and Soviet. I mention the Soviet empire because it's implosion was faster and more dramatic than any of the other empires before it. It also exemplifies two of the greatest evils of Empires: An entrenched and excessively expensive bureaucracy and an excessively centrally controlled economy... Beware America. It could happen here.
