About this product
Product Information
The leading U.S. expert on abortion law charts the many meanings associated with Roe v. Wade during its fifty-year history "Ziegler sets a brisk pace but delivers substantial depth. . . . A must-read for those seeking to understand what comes next."-- Publishers Weekly What explains the insistent pull of Roe v. Wade ? Abortion law expert Mary Ziegler argues that the U.S. Supreme Court decision, which decriminalized abortion in 1973 and was overturned in 2022, had a hold on us that was not simply the result of polarized abortion politics. Rather, Roe took on meanings far beyond its original purpose of protecting the privacy of the doctor-patient relationship. It forced us to confront questions about sexual violence, judicial activism and restraint, racial justice, religious liberty, the role of science in politics, and much more. In this history of what the Supreme Court's best-known decision has meant, Ziegler identifies the inconsistencies and unsettled issues in our abortion politics. She urges us to rediscover the nuance that has long resided where we would least expect to find it--in the meaning of Roe itself.

Reviews
"Ziegler sets a brisk pace but delivers substantial depth. . . . A must-read for those seeking to understand what comes next."-- Publishers Weekly "An accessible account. . . . As always, Ziegler is a clear explainer of a complex, gray-shaded body of law."-- Kirkus Reviews "Ziegler's succinct description about the nation's polarizing debate over abortion remains more relevant than ever. . . . Ziegler's greatest contribution to the legal history of abortion (besides her prodigious research and her ability to uncover information that no one else has discovered) is her even-handed analysis and attention to nuance and complexity."--Daniel K. Williams, Current "An accessible and timely primer on the many meanings Roe has accrued in American politics, law, and culture across half a century, deepening our understanding of this polarizing constitutional landmark."--Ken Kersch, author of Conservatives and the Constitution "Mary Ziegler offers a brilliant and insightful analysis of the fascinating ways in which our nation's understanding of the abortion issue has evolved over the half-century since Roe was decided."--Geoffrey R. Stone, author of Sex and the Constitution "With the landmark Supreme Court abortion decision as its lens, Roe offers a vivid view of the half-century of political, legal, and social conflicts over judicial activism, women's rights, the place of religion in America, racial justice, sexuality, regional and class differences--while illuminating shifting political party positioning and pivotal individuals who resist the easy labels of polarized politics."--Martha Minow, 300th University Professor, Harvard University, "An accessible account. . . .

Williams, Current "Lucid and cogent. . . . The strength of the book is its descriptions of the multiple meanings of Roe in American society and how the decision became a microcosm of political polarization and debates in the US for the last half-century."--D.
