"Abortion is one of the most common of all medical procedures. But is is still stigmatized, and all too often people do not feel they can talk about their experiences. People who support abortion rights have been fighting hard to create a world in which the right to access safe and legal abortion services is guaranteed. The oppostion to this has been intense and sometimes violent - and victories have been hard won. But in this uncertain climate, the long fight for abortion rights is being picked up by a new generation of courageous, creative and passionate actvists. This books is about that history - and the future - of that fight."--
