Laid in, publisher issued mailing address for Margaret Sanger. This is an early reissue. The first edition of this title was published by Brentano's in 1920. Margaret Sanger is credited as the founder of Planned Parenthood, having established multiple organizations that ultimately evolved into the modern day nonprofit. In 1916, she opened the first birth control clinic in the United States. She also wrote frankly about women's reproductive rights, a topic considered innapropriate for public discourse at the time. In this title, she gives "new, practical constructive ideas on the limitation of offspring that are startling only because other writers have lacked the vision and the courage to set them forth.".

Margaret Higgins Sanger (1879 Ð 1966), who saw birth control as a civil right, founded the first birth control clinic in the United States in 1916. Sanger also founded numerous organizations that researched birth control and provided birth control education, particularly to working class women who were typically unable to access essential information about reproductive health. The organizations included the American Birth Control League, the National Committee on the Federal Legislation of Birth Control, and Planned Parenthood. She was also the founder and editor of The Woman Rebel, a monthly newsletter that circulated information on birth control and bore the anarchist slogan ÒNo Gods, No Masters.

Publishers dust jacket in orange with black lettering. Approximately 2 in. of the scarce, original dust jacket is lacking at the foot of the spine in addition to chips around the edges. Very good in good dust jacket. Includes printed note on how to write Margaret Sanger. First printing by this publisher, published not long after the first edition by BrentanoÕs in 1920. This is apparently an early issue, with no subsequent printings noted on the copyright page. Woman and the New Race is a product of SangerÕs fight for contraception. Sanger argues that birth control is necessary for womenÕs attainment of basic freedom. She defines voluntary motherhood as necessary for the economic and personal stability of women, as the price of raising a family was becoming increasingly burdensome. Sanger also brings to light the harm that excessive childbearing does to a womenÕs body. Sanger also connects birth control to immigration and the difficult living conditions she had seen. In the chapter ÒMaterials of a New RaceÓ Sanger argues the country is not prepared for more population growth.
