Frightening and revealing by Christina Dunigan (USA)  5 Stars
December 28, 2000
The research is painstaking and relentlessly documented. Statistics and anecdotal evidence are interwoven flawlessly, bringing home the human reality and demonstrating the full scope of the problem. I recommend this book, without qualification, to everyone concerned with reproductive politics regardless of where they stand on the prolife/prochoice spectrum.

| The Unfit: A History of a Bad Idea
by Elof Axel Carlson (Author)
The Unfit, by Elof Carlson, explores the sources of a movement --- negative eugenics -- that was used to justify the Holocaust, which claimed millions of innocent lives in World War II. The title reflects the nearly three centuries of belief that some people are socially unfit by virtue of a defective biology, and echoes an earlier theory of degeneracy, dating to biblical antiquity, in which some people were deemed unfit because of some transgression against religious law. The key intellectual...
