FRONT ROYAL, Va., May 15 /Christian Newswire/ -- Steven Mosher, the president of the Population Research Institute and acclaimed author, will appear on the popular EWTN news show, The World Over, hosted by Raymond Arroyo, on Friday, May 16th, at 8:00 PM EST. Steve and Raymond will discuss his new book: Population Control—Real Costs, Illusory Benefits. Published by Transaction Press, this groundbreaking work is an eye-opening exposé of the population control movement and its war on people.

Mosher, an eyewitness to the brutality of China's one-child policy, draws from personal experience and a lifelong passion for human rights to craft a compelling, exhaustive argument against population control. From its origins in racial hysteria and demographic ignorance to its state-sanctioned rise to the mainstream, Mosher describes the population control movement as few others have been able to do: as the world's number one violator of the rights of parents.

"Human rights are nonnegotiable, or they are not rights at all," Mosher says. "Abuses of basic rights, such as the right to bear children, cannot be expunged by reference to any calculus of costs versus benefits, any more than comparable violations of other basic human rights can be explained away, excused, or justified by reference to a supposedly larger social good." The book explains exactly how the population control movement continues to violate these basic rights, in the pursuit for a highly questionable "good."

Steven Mosher is available for on his new book, which is available on Amazon.com or on PRI's web site: www.pop.org.

The Population Research Institute (PRI) was founded in 1989 by Fr. Paul Marx, OSB, PhD and is dedicated to: (1) ending human rights abuses committed in the name of "family planning", (2) opposing outdated social and economic paradigms premised on the myth of overpopulation, (3) informing the public about the social and economic benefits of moderate population growth, and (4) promoting pro-natal and pro-family attitudes and policies worldwide. Steven Mosher is the author of numerous books, including A Mother's Ordeal, available in 11 languages.
