Informed Consent, Responsibilities in Pregnancy, and External Means of Gestation; IndexBased on a non-consequentialist ethical theory, this book critically examines the prevalent view that if a fetus has the moral standing of a person, it has a right to life and abortion is impermissible. Most discussion of abortion has assumed that this view is correct, and so has focused on the question of the personhood of the fetus. Kamm begins by considering in detail the permissibility of killing in non-abortion cases which are similar to abortion cases. She goes on to consider the case for the permissibility of abortion in many types of pregnancies, including ones resulting from rape,AbortionMoral and ethical aspectsAbortionLaw and legislationAbortionLaw and legislationUnited StatesAbortionMoral and ethical aspects.AbortionLaw and legislation.AbortionLaw and legislation363.4/6Kamm F.
