Philip Cohen rated a book it was amazing Sterilization and Fertility Decline in Puerto Rico (Population Monograph Series, No. 13) by Harriet B. Presser	Error rating book. Refresh and try again. Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
A tough read: 1/3 of Puerto Rican women were sterilized. This is her dissertation. She seems to have been naive to the coercive elements of the campaign. Important research anyway.
