Reviews
Most thorough examination to date... Readers will be both intrigued and disturbed by what they encounter., "Lombardo does an excellent job of meticulously laying out the sham nature of Buck v. Bell, and by the end of the text, the reader is left with no doubt that the case, which has never been overturned, was mired in deceit... Fascinating nuggets of racial politics, class inequality, and fear of the female body." -- Law & Society Review, "This book is a legal and historical masterpiece, combining meticulous ethical analysis with a liveliness that belies its scholarly roots and exhaustive footnotes and research." -- Michael B. Blank, PsycCRITIQUES, "Three Generations, No Imbeciles manages to be both a meticulously researched work of history and a compelling story." -- John G. Browning, Journal of Law, Medicine & Ethics, "A remarkable work of investigation and narrative synthesis, Lombardo connecs Buck v. Bell to a broader debate over the place of eugenics in American life and law... Having amassed over two decades of research, including interviewing Carrie Buck, Lombardo is uniquely qualified to tell this story." -- Jason Morgan Ward, Virginia Magazine, Lombardo reminds us that the same incentives to improve public health and lower tax burdens exist today., "Three Generations, No Imbeciles chronicles Buck's tragic life and reviews the larger history of American eugenics in a moving narrative that will appeal to a broad audience of lay readers interested in controversies over reproductive rights, public health, science, and the law." -- Brent Ruswick, Isis, "Lombardo reminds us that the same incentives to improve public health and lower tax burdens exist today." -- Pathophilia, "Three Generations provides valuable, new, and timely revelations for students and professional scholars across many disciplines." -- Susan Burch, Disability Studies Quarterly, "Heart-breaking and riveting... There is likely to be no better account of Buck v. Bell than Lombardo's book." -- Ian Dowbiggin, Ph.D., Journal of the History of Medicine, Law professor and historian Paul Lombardo does a superb job of revealing, for the first time, all the facts in the infamous Buck v. Bell case of the 1920s, the Supreme Court decision ratifying Virginia's compulsory sterilization of 'feebleminded' people., "Overall, a fascinating book on one of the darker decisions in US law. An excellent addition to collections on US constitutional law, history, and reproductive rights. All readership levels." -- Choice, "Three Generations, No Imbeciles [is] a moving narrative that will appeal to a broad audience." -- Brent Ruswick, Isis, The book is lucidly written, well researched, thorough, and provocative... Three Generations, No Imbeciles is a must read for anyone who wants to understand the historical context of Buck v. Bell and its implications for ethics, law and public policy., "A sad and fascinating book... With his legal and historical background, Lombardo is particularly suited to give us a book that explains a surprisingly ignored injustice, its antecedents and consequences, and helps us to think about the ongoing struggle to find a health balance between privacy and government power." -- Stephen Murdoch, History News Network, "Meticulously detailed and researched history... this book is enjoyable, thought provoking, and troubling in equal measure. I highly recommend it." -- Susan Stefan, J.D., Psychiatric Services, Lombardo does an excellent job of meticulously laying out the sham nature of Buck v. Bell , and by the end of the text, the reader is left with no doubt that the case, which has never been overturned, was mired in deceit... Fascinating nuggets of racial politics, class inequality, and fear of the female body., Three Generations, No Imbeciles chronicles Buck's tragic life and reviews the larger history of American eugenics in a moving narrative that will appeal to a broad audience of lay readers interested in controversies over reproductive rights, public health, science, and the law., "The book is lucidly written, well researched, thorough, and provocative... Three Generations, No Imbeciles is a must read for anyone who wants to understand the historical context of Buck v. Bell and its implications for ethics, law and public policy." -- New England Journal of Medicine, "Lombardo convincingly shows that the eugenics of the 1920s, despite professional reversals and government apologies, still echoes in discussions of designer babies, grumbling about the costs of social programs and attempts to calculate the financial value of life." -- Edward Slavishak, PhD, Nursing History Review, "A remarkable work of investigation and narrative synthesis, Lombardo connects Buck v. Bell to a broader debate over the place of eugenics in American life and law... Having amassed over two decades of research, including interviewing Carrie Buck, Lombardo is uniquely qualified to tell this story." -- Jason Morgan Ward, Virginia Magazine of History and Biography, A sad and fascinating book... With his legal and historical background, Lombardo is particularly suited to give us a book that explains a surprisingly ignored injustice, its antecedents and consequences, and helps us to think about the ongoing struggle to find a health balance between privacy and government power., "A powerful commentary on the dangers of politicized medicine and social engineering." -- Daniel P. Murphy, Magill Book Reviews, "Lombardo tells a compelling and heavily documented story of injustice to society's less fortunate citizens. His sympathy for the abused is evident, but that does not turn Three Generations, No Imbeciles into a polemic... Armed with knowledge from this excellent book, we can hope we never return to the mistakes of our past." -- Internet Review of Books, This book is a legal and historical masterpiece, combining meticulous ethical analysis with a liveliness that belies its scholarly roots and exhaustive footnotes and research., "What makes Lombardo's analysis so important is that issues about the fate of our mutant genes, about the use of technologies to monitor pregnancies at risk for birth defects, and alternatives to relying on chance alone are subverted by our fear of eugenics." -- Elof Axel Carlson, Quarterly Review of Biology, What makes Lombardo's analysis so important is that issues about the fate of our mutant genes, about the use of technologies to monitor pregnancies at risk for birth defects, and alternatives to relying on chance alone are subverted by our fear of eugenics., This painstakingly researched book will surely be the definitive study of Buck v. Bell for many years to come., "Overall, a fascinating book on one of the darker decisions in US law. An excellent addition to collections on US constitutional law, history, and reproductive rights." -- Choice, "Highly recommended for academic, public, and law libraries." -- Philip Y. Blue, Criminal Law Library Blog, "Three Generations, No Imbeciles manages to be both a meticulously researched wor of history and a compelling story." -- John G. Browning, Journal of Law, Medicine & Ethics, "Lombardo's book is a powerful commentary on the dangers of politicized medicine and social engineering." -- Daniel P. Murphy, Magill Book Reviews, Lombardo does an excellent job of meticulously laying out the sham nature of Buck v. Bell, and by the end of the text, the reader is left with no doubt that the case, which has never been overturned, was mired in deceit... Fascinating nuggets of racial politics, class inequality, and fear of the female body., "The story Lombardo tells is heart -- breaking and riveting." -- Ian Dowbiggin, Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences, "Most thorough examination to date... Readers will be both intrigued and disturbed by what they encounter." -- Lynne Curry, H-Net Reviews, This book is suitable for any audience interested in the history of the eugenics movement in the United States., Meticulously detailed and researched history... this book is enjoyable, thought provoking, and troubling in equal measure. I highly recommend it., Three Generations provides valuable, new, and timely revelations for students and professional scholars across many disciplines., "This painstakingly researched book will surely be the definitive study of Buck v. Bell for many years to come." -- Diane B. Paul, American Historical Review, Meticulously researched... As Lombardo conclusively demonstrates, those who sought to have Buck sterilized did not let the facts get in the way of the story the law required them to tell., "Compelling and well-researched... Three Generations, No Imbeciles gives Carrie Buck's long-untold story the attention it deserves." -- Harvard Law Review, "As a historical endeavor, it is rich and rewarding, permitting the reader a broad understanding of the social, cultural and legal context for the case that inspired Oliver Wendell Holmes' famous quotation, "Three generations of imbeciles are enough."... Equally important as the excavation of this history is the manner in which Lombardo's writing surfaces the emotional consequences of fertility-related policies." -- Michelle Oberman, Journal of Legal Education, "The struggle for justice goes on. Bioethicists typically ask "ought" questions; but not all follow up with activism. More bioethicists should accept the social activist role. Paul Lombardo demonstrates exactly how it can be done." -- Ruth Levy Guyer, American Journal of Bioethics, "In a very readable 279 pages, Paul A. Lombardo sets forth the facts about the eugenics movement in the United Sates." -- Robert T. Adams, Virginia Lawyer, "For almost 30 years, Lombardo has tried to uncover the full story of the wrongs." -- Andrea Pitzer, USA Today, "Meticulously researched... As Lombardo conclusively demonstrates, those who sought to have Buck sterilized did not let the facts get in the way of the story the law required them to tell." -- Paul Lauritzen, Commonweal, In a very readable 279 pages, Paul A. Lombardo sets forth the facts about the eugenics movement in the United Sates., "Heart-breaking and riveting... There is likely to be no better account of Buck v. Bell than Lombardo's book." -- Ian Dowbiggin, Ph.D., Journal of the History of Medicine and Allied Sciences, "What makes Lombardo's analysis so important is that issues about the fate of our mutant genes, about the use of technologies to monitor pregnancies at risk for birth defects, and alternatives to relying on chance along are subverted by our fear of eugenics. Past abuse should make us careful how we use new technolgoies. It should not be used to ban new technologies." -- Elof Axel Carlson, Quarterly Review of Biology, "Law professor and historian Paul Lombardo does a superb job of revealing, for the first time, all the facts in the infamous Buck v. Bell case of the 1920s, the Supreme Court decision ratifying Virginia's compulsory sterilization of "feebleminded" people." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review), Three Generations, No Imbeciles manages to be both a meticulously researched work of history and a compelling story., "Most thorough examination to date...
