Abortion is the termination of pregnancy. Not many years ago majority of the people considered abortion a crime so disgusting that it was hardly mentioned in public. Abortion was the dramatic stuff of novels and movies portraying girls in trouble or women pushed to the brink. Times have changed somewhat. Abortion is now legal in the west. Yet controversy over the legitimacy of abortion continues to flare. In the history of medical ethics, no other topic has attracted more attention. The reason is clear. In the abortion issue, major moral, legal and social issues are intertwined to form a problem of great subtlety and complexity. This is a review article.
