Book Description
Shrage argues that Roe v Wade's regulatory scheme of a six-month time span for abortion on demand polarized the public and obscured alternatives with potentially broader support. She explores the origins of that scheme, then defends an alternate one--with a time span shorter than 6 months for non-therapeutic abortions--that could win broad support needed to make legal abortion services available to all women.

Book Description
At a UN General Assembly Special Session in 1999, governments recognised unsafe abortion as a major public health concern, and pledged their commitment to reduce the need for abortion through expanded and improved family planning services, as well as ensure abortion services should be safe and accessible. This technical and policy guidance provides a comprehensive overview of the many actions that can be taken in health systems to ensure that women have access to good quality abortion services as allowed by law.

Book Description
Appealing to reason rather than religious belief, this book is the most comprehensive case against the choice of abortion yet published. The Ethics of Abortion critically evaluates all the major grounds for denying fetal personhood, including the views of those who defend not only abortion but also infanticide. It also provides several (non-theological) justifications for the conclusion that all human beings, including those in utero, should be respected as persons. This book also critiques the view that abortion is not wrong even if the human fetus is a person. The Ethics of Abortion examines hard cases for those who are prolife, such as abortion in cases of rape or in order to save the mother’s life, as well as hard cases for defenders of abortion, such as sex selection abortion and the rationale for being “personally opposed” but publically supportive of abortion. It concludes with a discussion of whether artificial wombs might end the abortion debate. Answering the arguments of defenders of abortion, this book provides reasoned justification for the view that all intentional abortions are morally wrong and that doctors and nurses who object to abortion should not be forced to act against their consciences.

Book Description
Most arguments for or against abortion focus on one question: is the fetus a person? In this provocative and important book, David Boonin defends the claim that even if the fetus is a person with the same right to life you and I have, abortion should still be legal, and most current restrictions on abortion should be abolished. Beyond Roe points to a key legal precedent: McFall v. Shimp. In 1978, an ailing Robert McFall sued his cousin, David Shimp, asking the court to order Shimp to provide McFall with the bone marrow he needed. The court ruled in Shimp's favor and McFall soon died. Boonin extracts a compelling lesson from the case of McFall v. Shimp--that having a right to life does not give a person the right to use another person's body even if they need to use that person's body to go on living-and he uses this principle to support his claim that abortion should be legal and far less restricted than it currently is, regardless of whether the fetus is a person. By taking the analysis of the right to life that Judith Jarvis Thomson pioneered in a moral context and applying it in a legal context in this novel way, Boonin offers a fresh perspective that is grounded in assumptions that should be accepted by both sides of the abortion debate. Written in a lively, conversational style, and offering a case study of the value of reason in analyzing complex social issues, Beyond Roe will be of interest to students and scholars in a variety of fields, and to anyone interested in the debate over whether government should restrict or prohibit abortion.

Book Description
The Plea of the Fetuses: Trump's Advocacy for the Aborted Children and Social Responsibility All Americans Must Advocate For In "The Plea of the Fetuses," Elizabeth Ckalyx delivers a stirring call to action, illuminating the plight of the unborn and challenging readers to confront the profound moral and societal implications of abortion. With poignant insight, Ckalyx exposes how the unborn are systematically robbed of their right to life, casting a spotlight on the devastating consequences of a practice that denies countless individuals the chance to fulfill their potential. Drawing on a rich tapestry of global examples, Ckalyx showcases the far-reaching impact of those who might have been, highlighting the myriad contributions that could have altered the course of history for the better. Through compelling narratives, she underscores how the loss of these potential leaders, innovators, and problem solvers perpetuates the very crises that afflict our world today. From the historic Roe v. Wade decision to the ongoing debates surrounding abortion laws in America and beyond, Ckalyx provides a comprehensive exploration of the legal, cultural, and ethical dimensions of this contentious issue. She delves into the history of abortion, offering invaluable insights into society's evolving attitudes and the profound implications for future generations. At its heart, "The Plea of the Fetuses" is a powerful manifesto for justice-a fervent plea that resonates with urgency and compassion. Ckalyx compellingly argues that the rights of the unborn must be recognized and safeguarded, just as we champion the rights of presidents, ministers, and other esteemed figures. For in the eyes of fate, every unborn child harbors the potential to shape the world in profound ways. As readers embark on this transformative journey, they are challenged not only to reconsider their views on abortion but also to embrace a deeper sense of social responsibility. With impassioned prose and unwavering conviction, Ckalyx implores us to stand up for the voiceless, to champion the cause of the unborn, and to strive for a future where every life is valued and protected. Join Elizabeth Ckalyx in "The Plea of the Fetuses" and be inspired to advocate for a more just and compassionate world-one where the promise of every unborn child is honored and cherished. Let us heed the call of conscience and stand in solidarity with the voiceless. Together, we can uphold the sanctity of life and ensure that the rights of the unborn are enshrined in our laws and hearts. Take action today to support initiatives that promote life-affirming choices and advocate for the rights of all individuals, born and unborn. The future of humanity depends on our collective resolve to champion justice and compassion for all.
