Samenvatting
If you read only one book about democracy, The Turnaway Study should be it. Why? Because without the power to make decisions about our own bodies, there is no democracy. Gloria Steinem
The remarkable (The New Yorker) landmark study of the consequences on womens livesemotional, physical, financial, professional, personal, and psychologicalof receiving versus being denied an abortion that should be required reading for every judge, member of Congress, and candidate for officeas well as anyone who hopes to better understand this complex and important issue (Cecile Richards).
What happens when a woman seeking an abortion is turned away? To answer this question, Diana Greene Foster assembled a team of scientistspsychologists, epidemiologists, demographers, nurses, physicians, economists, sociologists, and public health researchersto conduct a ten-year study. They followed a thousand women from across America, some of whom received abortions, some of whom were turned away. Now, for the first time, Dr. Foster presents the results of this landmark study in one extraordinary, groundbreaking book.
Judges, politicians, and pro-life advocates routinely defend their anti-abortion stance by claiming that abortion is physically risky and leads to depression and remorse. Dr. Fosters data proves the opposite to be true. Foster documents the outcomes for women who received and were denied an abortion, analyzing the impact on their mental and physical health, their careers, their romantic relationships, and their other children, if they have them. Women who received an abortion were better off by almost every measure than women who did not, and five years after they receive an abortion, 99 percent of women do not regret it.
As the national debate around abortion intensifies, The Turnaway Study offers the first thorough, data-driven examination of the negative consequences for women who cannot get abortions and provides incontrovertible evidence to refute the claim that abortion harms women. Interwoven with the study findings are ten engaging, in-depth (Ms. Magazine) first-person narratives. Candid, intimate, and deeply revealing, they bring to life the women and the stories behind the science.
Revelatory, essential, and particularly relevant now (HuffPost), this is a must-read for anyone who cares about the impact of abortion and abortion restrictions on peoples lives.
