Very few issues seem more polarizing in American political discourse than abortion. One of the things that makes the abortion debate so complex is the way that it intersects with and is informed by so many different areas of religion, science, medicine, law, women’s rights, and public opinion. This book is an attempt to illustrate how, even in each of these individual categories, abortion is a complicated issue and how that complexity compounds in the big picture, creating the need for us to move beyond the polarizing binaries if we hope to find constructive way forward that both respects women and reduces abortion.
