Abortion

This accessible legal-focused guide examines the Supreme Court cases that have shaped the issue of reproductive rights, beginning with the historic Roe versus Wade decision legalizing abortion. The Court has since ruled that states may require parental notification for minors seeking abortion, may place restrictions on access to abortion that do not present an undue burden, that restrictions must provide protections for the woman's health, and that Congress has the right to ban specific abortion procedures. This volume will help readers form a well-researched opinion.
