Surprising firsthand accounts from the front lines of abortion
provision reveal the persistent cultural, political, and economic
hurdles to access
More than thirty-five years after women won the right to legal
abortion, most people do not realize how inaccessible it has
become. In these pages, reproductive-health researcher Carole Joffe
shows how a pervasive stigma--cultivated by the religious
right--operates to maintain barriers to access by shaming women and
marginalizing abortion providers. Through compelling testimony from
doctors, health-care workers, and patients, Joffe reports the lived
experiences behind the polemics, while also offering hope for a
more compassionate standard of women's health care.
