Talking About Abortion: An American Political Dialogue

By James DeHullu

Talking About Abortion takes a unique approach to the controversies that surround abortion in America. Instead of arguing for a single point of view (pro-life or pro-choice), it lets you 'listen' to a dialogue among a group of fictitious American students and their professors. You will get to know these characters as they discuss abortion just like millions of real people across our nation do every day, at home and at work, with strong feelings and heated arguments. The students wrestle with tough questions such as: When does the life of a person begin? When does it end? When is abortion morally acceptable? When is it morally wrong? When should it be legal? When should it be illegal? And who should decide? They start from very different - and often opposing - points of view: conservative, liberal, evangelical, libertarian, and Catholic. They offer arguments that touch all of us deeply on this very important topic. This is philosophy as it should be - people guided by their love of wisdom exploring issues that we all care passionately about.

Talking About Abortion does not tell you what to think. Instead, it invites you to read the discussion and come to your own conclusions. You may even find that your ideas change as you follow this lively conversation.
