Описание:
"To convey the granular, paradoxical complexities behind a woman's decision to have an abortion, you need to be a good writer. Anna is a truly stunning writer and her story is of intimate service to the world right now." - Sarah Wilson, NY Times bestselling author of First, We Make The Beast Beautiful
When Anna made the decision to terminate her pregnancy, she stood at a crossroads: She could shrink into the shadows of undeserved shame, or she could bare her soul and use her grief to comfort those like her. Tearing down the walls of stigma, Anna's honesty to her friends and family was met with more love and support than she had imagined possible. What really surprised her, though, was how many people admitted that they had one, as well.
I've Had One Too sheds light on the true experiences of what Anna and millions of people in the United States have fearfully kept shrouded in secret. This memoir reaches out and lifts up the countless people who have made this challenging choice and fought for autonomy over their bodies and medical rights.
Weaving deeply personal narrative with insightful statistics, this memoir provides new insights and reminds us why we cannot stop talking about abortion law and science, even decades after the case of Roe v. Wade. After all, how does one heal from abortion grief? Why isn't it something we are taught to cope with? Why do so many activists and politicans intentionally leave abortion out of the conversation?
This book belongs on any the shelf of every feminist reader, holding its head high beside the works of inspirational social justice leaders Loretta Ross, Gloria Steinham, Dorothy Roberts, and Meera Shah.

Praise for I've Had One Too
"It is finally time to claim our right to this part of our reproductive lives. It is finally time to give a voice to those women who felt ashamed and guilty for making a personal choice." - Marine S l n e, Family Constellations Therapist.
"Anna's book will help so many women. In my practice, I see first hand what a psychological toll abortion takes on my clients, which is intensified by the shame and silence that surrounds this topic. It's time to create a culture where people feel supported in making whatever is the most ethical choice for them." - Jessica Baum, psychotherapist and founder of Relationship Institute of Palm Beach

Описание: Representing Abortion analyses how artists, writers, performers, and activists make abortion visible, audible, and palpable within contexts dominated by anti-abortion imagery centred on the fetus and the erasure of the pregnant person. This creative work is significant as it challenges the polarisation of conversations about abortion.
Описание: Many women throughout the world face the challenge of confronting an unexpected or an unwanted pregnancy, yet these experiences are often shrouded in silence. An Open Secret draws on personal interviews and medical records to uncover the history of women's experiences with unwanted pregnancy and abortion in the South American country of Bolivia. This Andean nation is home to a diverse population of indigenous and mixed-race individuals who practice a range of medical traditions. Centering on the cities of La Paz and El Alto, the book explores how women decided whether to continue or terminate their pregnancies and the medical practices to which women recurred in their search for reproductive health care between the early 1950s and 2010. It demonstrates that, far from constituting private events with little impact on the public sphere, women's intimate experiences with pregnancy contributed to changing policies and services in reproductive health in Bolivia.

Описание: Tracing the evolution of political discourse on abortion from the 1960s to today, this interdisciplinary book argues that in order to understand the changing pluralities of contemporary abortion debate, it is necessary to move beyond an understanding of abortion politics as characterised by `pro-choice` and `pro-life`.

Описание:
At the heart of the current debate over abortion is the question of what is at stake: for the liberal feminist group it is the woman's autonomy over her own body; for the conservative/ pro-life group it is the life of the fetus itself. Rejecting both of these views as extremes, L W. Sumner opts for a moderate position for which he provides a moral foundation.

Описание: Ethics for Environmental Policy reviews recent work in the field of environmental ethics. The text examines ways in which ethical frames of reference and decision principles are invoked in policy debates related to environmental protection, and how the integration of thought regarding conduct ethics and virtue ethics is essential for application of theory to practice.The third edition opens with two new chapters. The first presents an overview of ethical theory with emphasis on the role of ethical analysis and critique in framing debate on contemporary environmental problems. The second addresses issues at the forefront of this debate with emphasis on views and institutional responses to climate change, biodiversity loss, and the volume of pollutants and hazardous waste generated in industrial society.The book explores how the relationship between humans and the natural world has been conceived in various cultural traditions throughout history, followed by an examination of an attitudinal orientation toward nature grounded in respect, humility, gratitude, and responsibility. Positions on the moral status of non-human biotic entities are presented from several theoretical perspectives. The final chapters address issues related to the preservation, protection, and sustainable use of resources and the respective roles played by markets, government, and activist non-governmental organizations.

Описание: Winner of the NCTE George Orwell Award for Distinguished Contribution to Honesty and Clarity in Public Language Although Roe v. Wade identified abortion as a constitutional right in1973, it still bears stigma--a proverbial scarlet A. Millions of Americans have participated in or benefited from an abortion, but few want to reveal that they have done so. Approximately one in five pregnancies in the US ends in abortion. Why is something so common, which has been legal so long, still a source of shame and secrecy? Why is it so regularly debated by politicians, and so seldom divulged from friend to friend? This book explores the personal stigma that prevents many from sharing their abortion experiences with friends and family in private conversation, and the structural stigma that keeps it that way. In public discussion, both proponents and opponents of abortion's legality tend to focus on extraordinary cases. This tendency keeps the national debate polarized and contentious, and keeps our focus on the cases that occur the least. Professor Katie Watson focuses instead on the cases that happen the most, which she calls ordinary abortion. Scarlet A gives the reflective reader a more accurate impression of what the majority of American abortion practice really looks like. It explains how our silence around private experience has distorted public opinion, and how including both ordinary abortion and abortion ethics could make our public exchanges more fruitful. In Scarlet A, Watson wisely and respectfully navigates one of the most divisive topics in contemporary life. This book explains the law of abortion, challenges the toxic politics that make it a public football and private secret, offers tools for more productive private exchanges, and leads the way to a more robust public discussion of abortion ethics. Scarlet A combines storytelling and statistics to bring the story of ordinary abortion out of the shadows, painting a rich, rarely seen picture of how patients and doctors currently think and act, and ultimately inviting readers to tell their own stories and draw their own conclusions. The paperback edition includes a new preface by the author addressing new cultural developments in abortion discourse and new legal threats to reproductive rights, and updated statistics throughout.
Описание: With Latin America home to some of the most draconian bans on abortion in the world, abortion rights is one of the most controversial and hotly-contested topics in Latin American politics today. Jane Marcus-Delgado explores the ways in which key actors participate and shape strategies in the ongoing debate.
Описание: In 1967, when abortion was either illegal or highly restricted in every U.S. state, a group of ministers and rabbis founded the Clergy Consultation Service on Abortion (CSS) to counsel women with unwanted pregnancies—including referral to licensed physicians willing to perform the procedure. By the time Roe v. Wade made abortion legal nationwide in 1973, CCS had grown into a surprisingly outspoken national medical consumer and women’s rights advocacy group. To Offer Compassion offers a detailed history of this unique and largely forgotten movement, drawing on extensive interviews with original participants and on primary documents from the CCS’s operations.
Have you, or a loved one, experienced guilt, shame, grief, regret, or other painful emotions related to a past abortion? Do you wonder if a past abortion is still affecting your life today? Do you wonder if there is hope for healing? If so, you are not alone. Out of Grief and Into Wholeness is the author's own heart-wrenching, yet hope-filled, compelling, true story of abortion and its painful repercussions. Susan's captivating story was featured on the award-winning radio drama "Unshackled ", airing within the U.S. and abroad. This book chronicles an amazing series of divinely orchestrated encounters, in which God revealed His compassionate, unrelenting love, drawing Susan to the hope and healing her heart desperately needed. Ultimately, God used an unforeseen encounter with a complete stranger to unearth the "box" where Susan had stuffed her abortion secret, along with all the emotional pain she tried so hard to hide, bury and forget. Susan's prayer: Dear precious one reading this, my heartfelt prayer is that through these pages and the use of the included resources, you will profoundly experience the love of God, which can heal and restore all your hurting and broken places and bring you peace. Susan Justice is an RN and served in the past as the Coordinator of an Abortion Recovery Ministry. Her desire in writing this book is to honor the life of her child, to help others who are grieving, to discourage others from making the same tragic choice, and above all, to honor and give glory to the God who saved her and brought her to wholeness. Susan is blessed with a wonderful husband, two sons and a daughter-in-law. Her family is passionate about serving the Lord and sharing the Hope of the gospel of Christ wherever, and to whomever they can.
