Speaking of Abortion: Television and Authority in the Lives of Women de Andrea L. Press

Speaking of Abortion: Television and Authority in the Lives of Women: Morality and Society Series

Autor Andrea L. Press, Elizabeth R. Cole
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 ian 2001
Over four years, Andrea Press and Elizabeth Cole watched television with women, visiting city houses, suburban subdivisions, modern condominiums, and public housing projects. They found that television depicts abortion as a problem for the poor and the working classes, and that viewers invariably referred to and abided by class when discussing abortion. Speaking of Abortion is an invaluable resource that allows us to hear how ordinary women discuss one of America's most volatile issues.
