The last blog entry discusses an abortion study that found results showing a strong similarity between abortion rates in countries where abortion is illegal and countries where it is legal. However, the research was done by World Health Organization and the Guttmacher Institute . The Guttmacher Institute began as a "semiautonomous division of Planned Parenthood Federation of America", and currently describes itself as a non-for-profit organization. The Guttmacher Institute was formerly known as the Alan Guttmacher Institute, named for the former president of Planned Parenthood. He was also the vice president of the American Eugenics Society which is now called the "Society for the Study of Social Biology". Guttmacher was also a member of the Association for Voluntary Sterilization. This group still exists under the name, "Engender Health".
