註釋
From the former president of NARAL Pro-Choice America comes a politically impassioned, thought-provoking, and timely narrative about a woman’s constitutional right to shape her own life. Catalyzed by a pre–
Roe v. Wade
abortion, which required the consent of the husband who left her and the approval of a hospital panel made up entirely of men, Kate Michelman—a seasoned lobbyist, skilled political strategist, and trusted advisor to some of the most powerful leaders in America—has since devoted her life to protecting the rights of women and children.
