4.9/5 (28982 ratings)

Description:Surprising firsthand accounts from the front lines of abortion provision [?] reveal the persistent cultural, political, and economic hurdles to access. More than thirty-five years after women won the right to legal abortion, stories of limited access to abortion are still familiar; yet most people have little idea of just how inaccessible it has become. While a majority of Americans support safe and legal abortion, the pervasive stigma—cultivated by the religious right—continues to shame women and marginalize abortion providers in their own professional communities.Reproductive-health researcher Carole Joffe has studied abortion provision for more than thirty years. In Dispatches from the Abortion Wars, she relays on-the-ground stories of doctors grappling with the obstacles of providing abortion care for their patients: from skirting draconian state regulations to negotiating with intransigent insurance companies or having to beg superiors for the right to perform medically necessary abortions in-hospital. Joffe brings these examples to vivid life, reporting the lived experiences behind the polemics.Dispatches from the Abortion Wars also offers hope for real change, pointing the way to a more compassionate standard of women’s health care—one that responds to the needs of the individual and trusts women to make their own moral choices.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
