Download or read book Abortion and Infanticide written by Michael Tooley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has two main concerns. The first is to isolate the fundamental issues that must be resolved if one is able to formulate a defensible position on the question of the morality of abortion. The second is to determine the most plausible stand on those issues. The issues are intellectually difficult and many of them have been more or less ignored in public debate on abortion. Tooley argues, however, that plausible answers can be advanced, and that they support a liberal position on the morality of abortion.
