What to expect

This audiobook features opening arguments followed by two rounds of reply between two moral philosophers on opposing sides of the abortion debate. In the opening essays, Kate Greasley and Christopher Kaczor lay out what they take to be the best case for and against abortion rights. In the ensuing dialogue, they engage with each other’s arguments, and each responds to criticisms fielded by the other. Their conversational argument explores such fundamental questions as:

What gives a person the right to life?

Is abortion bad for women?

What is the difference between abortion and infanticide?

Underpinned by philosophical reasoning and methodology, this audiobook provides opposing and clearly structured perspectives on a highly emotive and controversial issue. The result gives listeners a window into how moral philosophers argue about the contentious issue of abortion rights, and an in-depth analysis of the compelling arguments on both sides.

Critics Review

“Necessary preparation for intelligently grappling with the complex set of arguments about abortion accumulated over more than half a century.”

Helen Alvaré, George Mason University, Virginia

“This splendid book offers a carefully reasoned debate about the morality of abortion by first-rate philosophers whose views are strongly opposed but who present their arguments and engage with those of the other in a civil, respectful manner.”

Jeff McMahan, White's Professor of Moral Philosophy, University of Oxford

“One of the most sophisticated, and yet accessible, books on the ethics of abortion available. Students and experienced researchers alike will find this an invaluable resource.”

Jonathan Herring, University of Oxford
