Summary
Is a fetus a person?
Is "pro-choice" a neutral position?
For 40 years since the landmark Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision, the abortion debate has been highly charged and politicized. Questions like these - and passionate but widely varying answers - have become the common language of the public dialogue on this issue. Yet behind the scenes of this historic case are other intriguing questions:
- How did the Supreme Court come to be involved in the abortion debate?
- Was language manipulated to affect the outcome?
- What was the moral basis underlying the decision?
In Compelling Interest, author Roger Resler draws on original sources, including the actual transcripts for oral arguments, the majority and minority opinions, and comments by the lawyers and others involved to take a careful look at the real story behind the historic Roe v. Wade decision.
