Loading... Abortion and the Politics of Motherhoodby Kristin Luker
None. This is a great book about abortion. The author tried to be as even-handed as possible by using extensive interviews from both pro-life and pro-choice people. Ms. Luker also draws on many public documents as well so this book is thoroughly researched. This is a great, informative book for anyone (pro-life, pro-choice, don't know) because it does show all sides to the debate. In this day and age where the abortion issue is front and center, this is a book everyone should read at least once. ( )no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0520055977, Paperback)In this important study of the abortion controversy in the United States, Kristin Luker examines the issues, people, and beliefs on both sides of the abortion conflict. She draws data from twenty years of public documents and newspaper accounts, as well as over two hundred interviews with both pro-life and pro-choice activists. She argues that moral positions on abortion are intimately tied to views on sexual behavior, the care of children, family life, technology, and the importance of the individual.(retrieved from Amazon Tue, 19 Apr 2011 14:46:33 -0400) No library descriptions found. |
