This is one of my favorite Life Report episodes I ever hosted. I think lots of pro-life advocates could learn from the things that atheist Phil Plaitt said at a skeptics conference. Check it out!

The Ethics of Abortion book cover

The Ethics of Abortion: Women’s Rights, Human Life, and the Question of Justice (Routledge, 2010)

If you can only buy one book on abortion, this is the one you should buy. It’s the single best philosophical treatment I’ve read yet. It’s organized really well, there’s a nice brief explanation of pro-choice threshold arguments, and it’s still pretty easy to read.

I can’t recommend Christopher Kaczor’s book enough for pro-life advocates that want to understand this issue better.
