Fit to be Tied: Sterilization and Reproductive Rights in America, 1950-1980 - Critical Issues in Health and Medicine Series
Rebecca M. Kluchin
The 1960s revolutionized American contraceptive practice. Diaphragms, jellies, and condoms with high failure rates gave way to newer choices of the Pill, IUD, and sterilization. This book provides a history of sterilization and what would prove to become, at once, socially divisive and a popular form of birth control.
