Wading Pool On Abortion How to Move Beyond Controversy

THE WADING POOL is not a book for everyone. It does not take a systematic approach toward examining the abortion controversy, nor is it easily accessible to those who prefer someone else to do their thinking for them. This one reviewer's slant on THE WADING POOL: "...Okay. I love a challenge. And certainly much can be gained by going beyond the "right" & "wrong," dogmatic & stereotype-laden discussions of the past." "...THE WADING POOL should be read, micro-chapter by micro-chapter, in a post-graduate seminar, where the resultant sparks of thought can freely fly out to ignite passion (or at least discussion) where they will." "ABORTION WAS CONCEIVED WHEN THE INTUITION OF MOTHERHOOD COULD NO LONGER BE SILENCED BY THE COWARDICE OF HUMANKIND is not a sentence to be digested alone, or in one setting." "...I did like Eagle's thoughts on the consequences of our becoming "ethically passive" & his notice to women regarding the "patriarchal beast," & have enjoyed several stimulating conversations with friends regarding his suggestion we change "Pro-Choice" to "Pro-Consequence" & see what happens. And that is the author's goal, after all."--Betsy Nash, NEW TIMES, December 1992.Eagle, Dave is the author of 'Wading Pool On Abortion How to Move Beyond Controversy' with ISBN 9780963239570 and ISBN 0963239570.
