Review: Frank Beckwith’s new book, Defending Life

Douglas LeBlanc of Christianity Today reviews Francis Beckwith’s Defending Life: A Moral and Legal Case Against Abortion Choice:

Beckwith performs a most effective demolition job on the pro-choice movement’s more hackneyed arguments. For instance, part of his answer to the annoying “Don’t like abortion? Then don’t have one” bumper-sticker position is “Don’t like murder? Don’t commit one.” Beckwith argues forcefully that pro-choice advocates who offer such suggestions are practicing a subtle and patronizing intolerance that expects pro-lifers to act as if their “fundamental view of human life is false.”
