HOW THE PRO-CHOICE MOVEMENT SAVED AMERICA
by Cristina Page

Book Cover

The frightening truth about the movement to curtail family planning and change the culture of sex across America, and what's at stake for all of us if it succeeds.

 

Bolstered by solid research, intellectual heft, and firsthand reporting, this is a book poised to change the debate over reproductive rights in this country. As activist and writer Cristina Page shows, the gains made by birth-control advocates (historically) and pro-choice organizations (currently) have formed the bedrock of freedoms few Americans would choose to live without.

 

Now, the future of legal abortion is far from guaranteed. In many parts of the country, ready access to many forms of contraception is in jeopardy. And that development, Page argues, should have everyone - regardless of moral or political persuasion - deeply concerned. These basic freedoms are not just for the freewheeling gals of "Sex and the City," but are central to the lives of working mothers and fathers from Phoenix to Duluth, churchgoers and nonbelievers alike.

 

Page crystallizes the thoughts and attitudes of a generation of women and men whose voices are seldom heard in the political arena. How the Pro-Choice Movement Saved America is the first book to address the positive transformation our society has undergone because of our ability to plan when and if to have children. It also exposes the anti-choice movement's far-reaching and dangerous agenda. Fresh, bold, and stocked with counterintuitive arguments, this is a book bound to form the basis for heated conversations nationwide.
