New book on the eugenicist roots of the anti-life movement

Briefing.

From SPUC: A new book describes the eugenicist roots of the campaign for abortion.
Ann Farmer's By Their Fruits: Eugenics, Population Control, and the Abortion Campaign describes plans to limit breeding by lower social classes and to eliminate the disabled. Abortion promoters have exaggerated the number of clandestine abortions, and birth control policies have caused demographic and economic problems.
