The Effects Of Legalized Abortion In England, J. Vincent O'Sullivan
The Effects Of Legalized Abortion In England, J. Vincent O'Sullivan
The Linacre Quarterly
Dr. O'Sullivan traces the process leading to the passage of the 1968 British Abortion Act and the consequences of that act with a view to helping the American medical profession learn from the British experience.

But the English have had sufficient experience with it, and its effects there indicate that attempts to legalize abortion demand close watching.
