A Rational Case for Life: Why the Unborn Matter

by Randal L. N. Mandock

This book advocates for a change in narrative for the prolife cause to remove confusion about the scope of the challenges to the birth of babies in modern societies. For far too long those who would terminate unborn children have had total control of the narrative about nascent human life. This book is an attempt to radically revise that narrative to make it more favorable to the preservation of children in their mother’s womb.

TESTIMONIALS

“A clear, courageous witness to the sanctity of human life. Combining science, ethics, and faith in a compelling defense of the unborn, the author addresses from a Catholic layman’s perspective the principle of double effect and the question of whether or not surgical operations to save a woman’s life are abortions.” – Dr. Sebastian Mahfood, OP, co-author with Ronda Chervin of Catholic Realism: A Framework for the Refutation of Atheism and the Evangelization of Atheists
