About the Book

A broadly annotated selected bibliography of monographs, periodical articles, and U.S. government documents on the pro-choice and pro-life question. Materials included were published in the United States between January 1990 and December 1994. This work provides an objective, comprehensive listing of all periodical and monographic publications on pro-choice and pro-life issues published between 1990 and the end of 1994. It includes all materials fitting parameters of research in the ethical, legal, moral, religious, and social arenas. It is a selected bibliography in that it excludes articles dealing with methods of contraception and abortion, clinic bombings, euthanasia, and exclusively medical issues, in favor of items dealing directly with the pro-choice/pro-life debate. Presented in standard Modern Language Association (MLA) bibliographical format, this book is useful to students, scholars, and professionals of librarianship, psychology, sociology, population studies, religion, law, and civil liberties.

Review :
"Abortion is one of the most divisive issues of our day, just as slavery was for the middle of the 19th century. It behooves us to face this controversy squarely and solve the problem without going to war....Richard Fitzsimmons and Joan Diana have done all in this battle a great service by making the pertinent information easily available to everyone who seeks to know what the issues are and where differing people stand on them. We owe them a debt of gratitude."-Most Reverend James C. Timlin, D.D. Bishop of Scranton "Pro-Choice/Pro-Life gathers together literature representing a variety of viewpoints....Without question, this bibliography will serve as the yardstick by which future bibliographies on the subject will be measured."-Reference Books Bulletin on the authors' Pro-Choice/Pro-Life (1991) "Students in high school today must have, for their personal information as well as for the preparation of research papers and debate topics, both sides of the Pro-Choice/Pro-Life issues in the 1990's. This annotated bibliography provides just that essential access."-Blanche Woolls Professor, School of Library and Information Science University of Pittsburgh "The Pro-Choice/Pro-Life debate is among the most vigorous and enduring in contemporary American society.... Pro-Choice/Pro-Life Issues in the 1990s will continue and update the compilers' earlier evaluative bibliography of materials on this highly controversial question. It will be useful to librarians in collection development and to library users seeking to locate materials on all sides of the issue."-Thomas J. Galvin, Professor of Information Science and Policy University at Albany/SUNY "This new title will be heavily utilized by a large number of different patrons--from theologians, counselors, researchers, lawyers, and teachers to students, debators, social workers, and public library patrons. The descriptive, objective annotations of the materials are a boon to all...."-Reverend Jovian P. Lang, OFM University of North Texas and Texas Women's University "This useful bibliographic guide is unique in covering both sides of the abortion controversy, drawing from monographic and periodical literature, minus newspaper articles. Very brief, objective annotations are provided. Entries are listed alphabetically by author or title....Although it is especially good for public libraries since much coverage is devoted to popular periodicals, Pro-Choice/Pro-Life can also be used in all levels of academic libraries."-Choice on the authors' Pro-Choice/Pro-Life (1991)
