This work provides the first broadly based documentation and
analysis of the evolution of abortion from criminal act to personal
choice. The author places the abortion question in the wider
context of change in the social realm and in law, politics,
economics, and medical practice. Dealing with the confrontation
between pro-life and pro-choice groups, Davis analyzes feminist
interpretations of abortion reform and discusses efforts to create
a human-centered procedure that will benefit women themselves
rather than doctors or clinic managers. Other important issues
covered include the historical inconsistency of abortion laws and
their enforcement; social and institutional support systems before
and after legalization; social policy and abortion; the effects of
legalized abortion on women's kinship ties; the Equal Rights
Amdendment; and biological politics.
