Author: Peter Kreeft

Is abortion a woman’s right?
When does human life begin?
Should we legislate morality?

What would happen if the Socrates of old suddenly appeared in modern Athens?

Peter Kreeft imagines the dialog that might ensue with three worthy opponents–a doctor, a philosopher and a psychologist–about the arguments surrounding abortion.

Dialog One: Socrates in an Abortion Clinic
