Abortion and Public Policy:: An Interdisciplinary Investigation Within the Catholic Tradition.
ISBN: 9781881871187 / Angielski / Miękka / 253 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The ongoing debate over abortion serves as a clear indication that the Supreme Court decision of 1973 did little to settle the question of abortion's legitimacy.

By presenting the balanced,...
