Decriminalising Abortion in the UK Résumé

Decriminalising Abortion in the UK: What Would It Mean? Sally Sheldon

Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. The public and parliamentary debate about UK abortion law is often diverted away from key moral and political questions by dispute regarding basic questions of fact. And all too often, claims of scientific 'fact' are ideologically driven. With each chapter written by leading experts in the fields of medicine, law, reproductive health and social science, this book offers a concise and authoritative account of the evidence regarding the likely impact of decriminalisation.
