All of Abortion's Dangers
Documented in New Book
Libraries, pregnancy centers and researchers can now easily access information
on the most hotly-contested social, moral and political topic of our day.
The Elliot Institute proudly announces the release of Detrimental Effects
of Abortion: An Annotated Bibliography with Commentary (3rd Edition). It
is the most complete summary available of statistically significant studies
on abortion.
Compiled by attorney and post-abortion expert Thomas W. Strahan, this
276-page reference guide is an indispensable resource for therapists, counselors,
medical professionals, students, pro-life activists and anyone else interested
in post-abortion studies. Studies are organized into more than 50 different
subtopics, and each entry includes a review of the key findings of the
cited study. Major topics covered include:
-
Abortion-Decision Making
-
Standard of Care for Abortion Providers
-
Psychological Effects of Abortion
-
Physical Effects of Abortion
-
Social Effects and Implications of Abortion
-
Abortion and Maternal Mortality
-
Adolescents and Abortion
"Most of the public doesn't know what information is out there, especially
not information that is published in scholarly or medical journals," said
Elliot Institute director David Reardon. "The task of searching for it
in the Internet or in a reference library can be overwhelming and time-consuming.
So we're especially encouraging pro-life groups to donate a copy to their
local library so everyone can easily access this information."
Strahan, who edits The Research Bulletin for the Association
for Interdisciplinary Research in Values and Social Change, said this book
is an important tool for those who want to help people recognize the risks
of abortion.
"Most people think that because abortion is legal, it's safe for women,
period," Strahan said. "They think that as long as the government says
it's okay, then it must be good for our society. They don't realize that
many researchers and scholars studying this issue have found that just
the opposite is true."
The book is $35 (includes shipping). Check or credit card orders can
be placed at 1-888-412-2676 or amysobie@juno.com.
