Book excerpt: Sociologist and anthropologist Blanchard chronicles the evolution of the anti-abortion movement in the US from the modest efforts, mostly by priests and other Catholics, in the 1960s, through the major liberalizing court decisions, to the volatile and often violent protests of the 1990s. He says the single most important development has been the merging of the movement with the conservative political ideology of cultural fundamentalism. Paper edition (unseen), $14.95.
