Abstract
"A constitutional lawyer and Harvard law professor examines both sides of the reproductive rights debate, revealing pro-choice sympathies. "This global survey of attitudes toward abortion illustrates that the opposing claims in the debate . . . are social constructs," said PW. "The book is a stimulating, fresh contribution to the ongoing debate."
