To answer this question, Diana Greene Foster assembled a team of scientists--psychologists, epidemiologists, demographers, nurses, physicians, economists, sociologists, and public health researchers--to conduct a ten-year study. They followed a thousand women from across America, some of whom received abortions, some of whom were turned away. Now, for the first time, Dr. Foster presents the results of this landmark study in one extraordinary, groundbreaking book. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJudges, politicians, and pro-life advocates routinely defend their anti-abortion stance by claiming that abortion is physically risky and leads to depression and remorse. Dr. Foster's data proves the opposite to be true. Foster documents the outcomes for women who received and were denied an abortion, analyzing the impact on their mental and physical health, their careers, their romantic relationships, and their other children, if they have them. Women who received an abortion were better off by almost every measure than women who did not, and five years after they receive an abortion, 99 percent of women do not regret it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs the national debate around abortion intensifies, \u003ci\u003eThe Turnaway Study \u003c\/i\u003eoffers the first thorough, data-driven examination of the negative consequences for women who cannot get abortions and prov\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Scribner","offers":[{"title":"Turnaway Study: Ten Years, a Thousand Women, and the Consequences of Having--Or Being Denied--An Abortion | Diana Greene Foster | Paperback | 9781982141578 | New | Social Science 1477805","offer_id":48757668774040,"sku":"1477805","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/41q5MRUyXML.jpg?v=1774237021","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/turnaway-study-ten-years-a-thousand-women-and-the-consequences-of-having-or-being-denied-an-abortion","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
