Since the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision in 1973, nearly
thirty million legal abortions have been performed in the United
States. Every year hundreds of thousands of women choose to have
abortions. Yet a veil of secrecy is drawn across abortion sites,
disturbed only by protest demonstrations and violence outside
clinics. For years the antichoice movement has loudly condemned the
abortion procedure. Opponents use such words as "baby-killing",
"murder", and "blood-dripping abortionists" to describe what goes
on in an abortion clinic - highly charged words that are intended
to frighten women who are facing one of the most important
decisions of their lives. What does - and does not - go on inside
an abortion clinic? Why do women seek this procedure? Why would a
physician specialize in this service? Why I Am An Abortion Doctor
provides a unique, firsthand look at the life and work of a leading
abortion provider. With compassion and courage Dr. Suzanne T.
Poppema shares the intimate details of her private and professional
struggle - including a view from the abortion clinic operating room
as well as a recollection of her own fifth-month abortion - to
promote better understanding of the reality of abortion and the
violent forces that threaten a woman's right to choose. Dr.
Poppema's journey has led her from a Catholic upbringing in rural
New Hampshire to professional training at Harvard Medical School,
where she made a critical career decision to forgo the fame and
fortune awaiting those who enter lucrative medical specialties in
favor of becoming a family physician. She has traveled to some of
the poorest places on earth, where she observed the expendability
of human life and thesubjugation of women. Dr. Poppema's work has
brought her a world-wide reputation as an authority on abortion.
She served as a member of an international panel in Paris to
discuss the French abortion pill, RU 486. Her own clinic was chosen
as one of the few U.S. test sites for this controversial drug. Why
I Am An Abortion Doctor is a compelling, informative book for
readers on both sides of the controversy. It is a groud-breaking
work that puts a human face on abortion and tells precisely what
the procedure involves, who it helps, and why women seek to
terminate their pregnancies.
