Eight to the Tenth Power

Eight to the Tenth Power is a controversial book concerning the emotions, decisions, anger, philosophies surrounding abortion and a woman's right to choose. The constant questions surrounding what might the new child have been if it had not been terminated, permeates and consumes the creation of this book. The intent is not to belittle or cast blame upon those who have chosen to abort. Rather, it is to question whether that choice somehow needs revisiting. I don't know if a million, a billion or two billion abortions will ring an end to this procedure. I do know that it is something worthy of discussion and reflection. As a society respectful of feeling and steeped in certain humane values, I think it is time to really pause before making the wrong "choice."
