Craig C. Malbon "Abortion in 21st century America" "tackles one of America's oldest and most controversial issues in a sharp new way. Abortion has long been the hot button issue in modern America, as well as been the spiritual and political divide of nearly 300 million Americans. however, never has one book made readers on both sides of the argument question their beliefs in such a provocative and inviting way ... until now. Since its legalization with the Roe v. Wade case, there have been countless books that seek to bolster their respective stance on the issue of abortion. malbon shatters that template with a challenging new approach that will drive all readers to think about abortion in new and sometimes painful ways.

By examining the endless ethical positions on the topic this guide provokes the reader to test his or her beliefs by embracing the other postion."--Back cover

Is personhood assigned as all-or-nothing, or is it a sliding scale based upon criteria arbitrarily aimed at our vulnerabilities? Does the voiceless embryo and fetus have advocates w...
