摘要

Each volume of the Library in a Book series is carefully designed to be a complete one-volume source for research on important issues. Clearly written and organized, the books provide an objective overview of the subject and a wealth of information, in a variety of formats, on sources ranging from other books to videos to special collections in libraries.

This volume explores the biological, legal, and psychological factors shaping this issue, and it shows how the controversy over abortion is testing the moral fiber of our country.
