"...Betsy Hartmann argues that the real solution to the population problem lies not in coercive population control programs but in the improvement of living standards, the position of women in society, and the quality of health and family planning services." Topics include China's one child policy, sterilization abuse in South Asia and Latin America, the neglect of barrier contraception and its potential beneficial role in the fight against AIDS, and more.
