Sterilized by the State: Eugenics, Race, and the Population Scare in Twentieth-Century North America
Hansen, Randall (University of Toronto)
This book shows how eugenic sterilization policies were maintained after the 1940s in the United States and Canada despite the discrediting of such theories by comparable Nazi Germany policies. It focuses on the individual experience of victims of sterilization, the doctors concerned, and the mental health institutions that protected the system.
