Description:
People have very strong views about abortion. However, about five and a half million women have had an abortion in the past thirty-five years since abortion was made legal in Britain. According to the latest statistics, the highest number of abortions is now among women aged twenty to twenty-four. The arguments for and against abortion from a wide variety of points of view are presented in this book. The legal, moral and health issues are also explored. The information comes from a wide variety of sources and includes government reports and statistics, newspaper reports, features, magazine articles and surveys, literature from lobby groups and charitable organisations.
