Summary Women's free choice to bear children is vital for a truly moral society, maintains noted ethicist and theologian Beverly Wildung Harrison. Bringing together ethical, historical, religious, and feminist viewpoints, Harrison shows that each woman's right of self-determination and procreative choice, including access to abortion, are social goods to which women of all economic levels and backgrounds are entitled.
