Darwin's Empty Cradle

One of the greatest travesties in American history occurred in 1973 when the United States Supreme Court decided that it is our fundamental human right to murder the weakest and most defenseless among us—the unborn child.

 

Since the abhorrent ruling decades ago, tens of millions of babies have been denied their first breath in the United States.

 

In Darwin's Empty Cradle, Stephen Lawwell analyzes the abortion movement's philosophical history, along with its current motivating factors, to reveal how centuries of evolutionary thought have greatly changed how our society views the life of the unborn child.
