Stone, author of Sex and the Constitution With the landmark Supreme Court abortion decision as its lens, Roe offers a vivid view of the half-century of political, legal, and social conflicts over judicial activism, women's rights, the place of religion in America, racial justice, sexuality, regional and class differences--while illuminating shifting political party positioning and pivotal individuals who resist the easy labels of polarized politics. -- Martha Minow, 300th University Professor at Harvard University
