On Criminal Abortion In America (1860) is a book written by Horatio Robinson Storer, a physician who was concerned about the prevalence of illegal abortions in the United States during the mid-19th century. The book is a comprehensive study of the history, causes, and consequences of criminal abortion, and it includes a detailed analysis of the legal and ethical issues surrounding the practice.Storer's book begins with an overview of the history of abortion in America, tracing its roots from colonial times to the present day. He then examines the various factors that contribute to the prevalence of illegal abortions, including poverty, lack of education, and social stigma. Storer also discusses the medical risks associated with criminal abortion, including infection, hemorrhage, and death.In the latter half of the book, Storer turns his attention to the legal and ethical implications of criminal abortion. He argues that the practice should be outlawed on moral grounds, and he makes a case for stricter enforcement of existing laws. Storer also advocates for increased education and access to contraception as a means of reducing the need for abortion.Overall, On Criminal Abortion In America is a seminal work in the history of reproductive rights and women's health. It provides a valuable historical perspective on the issue of abortion, and it remains relevant to contemporary debates about reproductive rights and access to healthcare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
