Genetic Counseling 1970

"It would seem in keeping, therefore, with modern public health procedure, to apply present knowledge in genetics to the prevention of avoidable birth deficiencies of hereditary and familial causation, rather than find it subsequently necessary to institute costly therapeutic and rehabilitation measures in attempts to overcome the damaging and emotionally disturbing effects of the deficiencies."

Introduction by Harold Abramson, MD
