The ongoing debate over abortion serves as a clear indication that
the Supreme Court decision of 1973 did little to settle the
question of abortion's legitimacy. If anything, in fact, the debate
has grown, with more strident voices and, in some cases, more
violent dimensions than ever before. On both sides, the debate has
been dominated by passionate but not always rational arguments. It
seems as thought there are no tame opinions about abortion in this
country, that public policy is the product of slogans, sound bites,
and placards, instead of principled argument. By presenting the
balanced, rational argument for the Catholic position on this
highly charged subject, Abortion and Public Policy makes a major
contribution to public policy discourse in our pluralistic society.
