Book Synopsis
In this survey of Western attitudes and laws about abortion, Jeffrey Reiman argues that an overlooked clue to the solution of the moral problem lies in the unusual way in which we value the lives of individual human beings - namely, that we value them irreplaceably.

Trade Review
The book certainly has a lot to offer as an introduction to some of the historical context and main arguments in the abortion debate. * Bulletin of Medical Ethics *
