This book is a "must read" for any person of any political persuasion who wishes to add to their comprehension of the question of abortion, the rights of women, & the evolution of the leadership roles assumed by women.
Not just about Roe vs. Wade - By: , 28 Jul 1998 Weddington's piece is not just about the culmination of Roe vs. Wade & beyond, but a heartfelt autobiography that helps readers understand & appreciate the challenges of womenin the that time period. Readers can gain leadership secrets from the experiences of Weddington from Roe to her workin the White House.
As a young woman, it helped me understand how far women have comein the past century & be more thankful of women leaders, like Sarah Weddington.
