The Cost of “Choice”: Women Evaluate the Impact of Abortion (Encounter Books, 2004)






Eunice Kennedy Shriver"The essays in this book describe with impact and accuracy the hazards—physical and mental—of abortion. The frequency of breast cancer is increased; suicide and depression are common—far more than usual post-partum depression.

The mother of a child, born or unborn, has an obligation to feed and shelter her child, society an obligation to help her, if needed, and the law an obligation to protect that child against willful injury or death…Such feeling of obligations are lost, however, on the feminist creed that abortion is a woman’s emancipation.

The essays in the Cost of "Choice" clearly dispel the belief that abortion is just another harmless minor surgical procedure."


Eunice Kennedy Shriver, Founder and Honorary Chairman, Special Olympics










Kate O'Beirne"The most important collection of the season is both stunning and wholly original. In The Cost of Choice, a dozen diverse, distinguished women dismantle the fundamental arguments of abortion advocates and reveal how women have paid dearly for the bill of goods sold by pro-choice feminists. Finally, the truth about abortion by thoughtful women for thinking women. "


Kate O'Beirne, Washington Editor, National Review.















Patricia Heaton"This is a must-read for all those who have wondered, "Don't women deserve better than abortion?"  a truly pro-woman approach to the most divisive question of our time."



Patricia Heaton, Two-time Emmy Winner, New York Times best-selling author and Honorary Chair of Feminists for Life of America
