Synopsis

The political philosopher Ryan T. Anderson, bestselling author of When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment, teams up with the pro-life journalist Alexandra DeSanctis to expose the catastrophic failure—social, political, legal, and personal—of legalized abortion.Hope in the Ruins of RoeWith the Supreme Court poised to return abortion law to the democratic process, a powerful new book reframes the coming debate: Our fifty-year experiment with unlimited abortion has harmed everyone—even its most passionate proponents.Women, men, families, the law, politics, medicine, the media—and, of course, children (born and unborn)—have all been brutalized by the culture of death fostered by Roe v. Wade.Abortion hollows out marriage and the family. It undermines the rule of law and corrupts our political system. It turns healers into executioners and “women’s health” into a euphemism for extermination.Ryan T. Anderson, a compelling and reasoned voice in our most contentious cultural debates, and the pro-life journalist Alexandra DeSanctis expose the false promises of the abortion movement and explain why it has made everything worse. Five decades after Roe, everyone has an opinion about abortion. But after reading Tearing Us Apart, no one will think about it in the same way.

Goodreads review by Matthew on October 25, 2022

I’m conflicted about this book. On the one hand, it is fairly comprehensive about the reality of abortion and how it harms our society. But the tone of the authors and the audiobook narrator is often snide and condescending, which was grating, and makes it a book that I could never recommend to some......more

Goodreads review by Bob on May 11, 2023

With Roe vs. Wade having been recently overturned and abortion laws now returned to the states, the time has never been more urgent for pro-life individuals to be prepared at the local level to strike against abortion.

Goodreads review by Bill on February 20, 2023

A well reasoned "other side" to the state/media narrative. Unlike what the state/media narrative tells us, nearly every social/moral issue has at least two sides, and typically more. It is unimaginable that a sane mother killing her child would not involve feelings of guilt. The loss of human life le......more

Goodreads review by Oscar on July 04, 2022

Using hard data, personal stories, and logical and philosophical arguments, Anderson and DeSanctis make a compelling case for the pro-life position. Consequently, the work serves as a great means of strengthening one's own stance if the reader is pro-life, trying to convince someone to support life......more

Pro-Life, pro-choice or somewhere in the middle, Tearing Us Apart will give you the information you need to make an informed decision. This book carefully examines the impact of 50 years of abortion madness on women, children, families, equality, medicine, the rule of law, the democratic process and......more
