This is an extensively documented, painstakingly written, and meticulously researched account of the rise, growth, and pervasive influence of Planned Parenthood in 20th century America.

5.0 out of 5 stars Blessed Are They That Read This Book
Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2016
Verified Purchase
This book was carefully reasearched and meticulously put together the argument that exposes Planned Parenthood for what they are: a corporation founded on eugenics. This organization is further exposed by participating in the "sexual revolution" that has caused teen pregnancies to skyrocket along with the spread of STDs. If you think Planned Parenthood does "good" or you are in the Pro Life movement this book is a must read.

5.0 out of 5 stars The truth about Margaret Sanger
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2000
This book is required reading for anyone who wants to fully understand the philosophy of Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood. Blessed Are The Barren presents, in well written and painstakingly researched detail, how the population control movement was launched in the U.S. under a carefully calculated guise. Donovan and Marshall extensively document the important role racism and eugenics played in the thinking of Sanger and other early "family planning" activists -- neither of which is usually mentioned in Sanger's whitewashed biographies. This is the most informative book I've ever read on the social history of Planned Parenthood, and I highly recommend it.
