Reviews
"Using data from personal interviews with key actors, archival material, and even documents clandestinely delivered to him, Donaldson shows us how and why the United States became involved in the fertility decisions of individual couples in distant countries. This superb volume is must reading for population specialists, historians, sociologists, policy makers, and anyone curious about why America has such a difficult time doing good internationally."--Ronald R. Rindfuss, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
"Tells the story of how the U.S. Agency for International Development (AID) became a missionary for family planning around the world and considers what difference the agency has made."--International Family Planning Perspectives
