4.0

An abundant variety of stories, politics, history, and artwork. If you’re looking for personal anecdotes of choices, they are here, but so are stories of intrepid doctors, abortion trials from before 1973, the Jane abortion referral service, political campaigns, dystopian futures, the development of a pregnancy, the bureaucracy of abortion, abortion doulas, and those killed by pro-life terrorists.

The backmatter is chock full of sources.
