Why are the reviews supporting this book so hateful??? I assumed they were Christians, but Christians would not be so intolerant and smallminded. Could they be worshipping the Devil, ya think??

s.t.g. whoever that is, who reviewed this book obviously overlooked the fact that all his referneces are documented page by page, accurately. and that person has also bought into the lie that planned barrenhood actually helps people. they kill them, if they arent born yet and want to eliminate all who are not rich and white. how evil can you get?? and then to find out the march of dimes works with them is even worse, i mean, when they say they prevent birth defects? how? by preventing the people, and i cannot wait until that evil organization self implodes and goes away. good for you telling the truth no one wants to hear, mr. grant. and dont stop!!

Damned Lies

This book is filled with inaccuracies, half truths, misinformation and an astounding number of outright lies. Its contorted logic is sometimes hard to follow. This work is best left for those fanatics who want a book that justifies their fear and their distorted us v. them moral values.

Flawed But Not Bad

Except for the flowery language, which makes one think the author wishes he were writing a 19th-Century novel, this is an accurate and disturbing book. If you don't mind a bunch of alliteration, nouns modified by half a dozen adjectives, etc., the book should hold your interest whether you agree with the author or not. I agree with the author's stance on abortion; I do not, however, completely agree with his tirade against birth control. Furthermore, I find some of his manufactured dialogue hard to believe.

Confusing the Issue

Though I understand the author's point in being blatantly Christian throughout his writing, the manner in which he does this inspires more distaste than openmindedness. I'm a Christian myself, so I sympathize with his point of view, but his technique in this book is the wrong approach.
In addition, the author's writing seems to show his desire to be a fiction writer. He uses language that is more appropriate in a fiction book than a piece of scholarly research. This is off-putting to the reader.
Finally, he would be better off sticking to the most controversial information about Planned Parenthood. Instead, he adds his own opinion about the inappropriateness of any birth control, which makes the rest of his opinions suspect.
