Reviews
"O'Brien's book is a welcome addition to the scholarship on eugenics and to the growing number of studies dedicated to disability, marginality, and stigma in the twentieth century and beyond. Its publication, now in paperback, will hopefully ensure it a broader readership, especially among students and the general public." - Marius Turda, Isis-Volume 107, Number 4, December 2016, 'O'Brien's book is a welcome addition to the scholarship on eugenics and to the growing number of studies dedicated to disability, marginality, and stigma in the twentieth century and beyond.
