Tracing the evolution of political and parliamentary discourses on abortion in Britain from the passage of the Abortion Act in the 1960s to the present day, this interdisciplinary book argues that to understand the changing pluralities of the abortion debate it is necessary to move beyond an understanding of abortion politics as characterised by 'pro-choice' versus 'pro-life'.
