Well Written, Balanced, and Accessible Discussion of Abortion in the U.S.Charles P. Golbert Scarlet A, by Professor Katie Watson, is a welcome addition to the discussion about abortion ethics and politics in the United States. The book is well researched and insightful yet highly accessible. Most important, the book brings balance to the debate, and urges respect and dialogue between people with differing views about this charged topic. Professor Watson is well-placed to pen this volume. A lawyer by training, Watson teaches bioethics and medical humanities at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, and is Senior Counsel for the Reproductive Rights Project at the American Civil Liberties Union. This background serves Watson well, as the book draws on the fields of law, medicine, bioethics, philosophy, and the social sciences. Watson uses stories and case studies to illustrate the issues she explores, which make the issues vital and compelling. Watson observes that most of the rhetoric about abortion focuses on the extreme cases on both sides of the discussion. Proponents emphasize cases of rape and incest, while opponent talk about so-called “late-term†abortions. Yet, the vast majority of abortions in the United States – what Watson refers to as “ordinary abortions†– don’t fall into either extreme.Watson posits that the debate’s focus on the extreme cases helps explain why we are so polarized about abortion. It also helps explain why a procedure that is so common and safe – about a third of women age 45 or older in the United States have had one or more abortions and the risk of dying from an abortion is about the same as from a dental procedure – is also so stigmatized (hence the title of the book). Scarlet A focuses on the overwhelming majority of abortions that do not fall into the extremes, what Watson calls ordinary abortions. Once the discussion centers on ordinary abortions, we might be able to find respect and common ground. At the same time, focusing the discussion on ordinary abortions might lesson the stigma attached to the procedure, allowing women and couples to more freely discuss the topic and their own experiences. The chapters summarizing the religious, philosophical, legal, and ethical arguments for and against abortion are fascinating. These chapters provide the tools for a more balanced yet robust discussion without falling back on discourse based on the more extreme (and rare) examples that too often form the basis of political discourse. Watson also shows how abortion laws, and the language used to discuss abortion, serve to further stigmatize the procedure and erode meaningful dialogue. Watson’s discussion of the beneficiaries of abortion being legal is illuminating. Beneficiaries include not only women who have had the procedure, but all men and women who are able to enjoy sex as part of their relationships and marriages because they do not have to be afraid of contraception failure. Watson ponders how the political discussion surrounding abortion might differ if more men viewed abortion as their issue too. Her examination of the difficulty accessing abortion, a safe legal procedure, is likewise illuminating. The closing sentence of Scarlet A is, “Let’s keep talking.†That is Watson’s goal in writing the book: to encourage respectful, balanced, honest discussion about abortion and reducing its stigma. I hope that Watson succeeds in this important goal, and suspect that she will if the book finds the wide audience it deserves.
A must read for anyone who has been following women's reproductive rights since Roe v Wade passed in the 1970's. Extremely well written, historical information, easy to read for those looking for information and for those nerds like me. Katie Watson has truly given us exactly what this country needs to begin bringing the issue of abortion to where it should be - a discussion about the basic health of 50% of the population of this country.
Abortion is a tough topic to talk about in this country. However, Katie Watson presents a fair discussion in an approachable way. This book is full of facts and details, but still easy to read for non-academics. Days after reading it, I am still thinking about it and processing it. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to know more about the abortion debate.
Arrived on time and as described. Thank you.
There is nothing easy about this topic, and so I “opened†(on my iPad) this book with some trepidation. What I found was an exceptionally balanced book that dives deeply into some of the most logical - and yet never spoken - underpinnings of the arguments for and against this third-rail topic. I expected a scholarly discussion from a bioethicist’s and lawyer’s point of view - what I found (along with all of that) was a thoughtful, rich and moving discussion about the myriad of reasons why this is the scarlett letter for modern women. Nuanced and poignant, this book was so much more than I hoped for. Bravo!
Overall this book is full of great statistics and really challenges the reader on the nuanced abortion issue. Her last chapter where she discusses her own abortion was as terrifying as I expected with her noting how she "dressed up" for the abortion almost as if it was a funeral and did not want to pay with her health card because she did not want other people funding her choice. This personal account was a real eye opener and worth reading the book IMO for this portion alone and also because the thrust of the book asks the question why women don't share their abortion experiences given how common or "ordinary" it is as she puts it. After reading her heartbreaking tale, I understand why more women do not share. It is not that they fear the "pro-life" people or having "the discussion" it is just that the experience is so horrible and there really is no way to justify "the choice" to others that seems worth having the conversation at all. This is the true dilemma and tragedy of abortion - whether one thinks it should be legal or not. To end a life - I just can't imagine.
In Scarlet A, Katie Watson unpacks the complex issue of abortion in the U.S. and adds nuance to a highly-polarized debate. "Ordinary abortions" occur in all classes of women, but political taboo has caused a chilling effect on personal discussions, giving people a skewed perception of the realities of abortion. Many people believe that they don't know someone who would abort. Statistically, they probably do. According to Watson, we will not move forward until we can have real discussions with our family and friends about these personal decisions. I received this as an eARC. All views are my own.
