These are some good books that convinced me to go from pro-choice to pro-life. The first two are history books that demonstrate the universality of the pro-life movement as opposed to it often being relegated to being a conservative issue. The latter two are books that address major concerns held by pro-choice people. They're pretty academic and respectful of the other side.

  • Defenders of the Unborn by Daniel K. Williams - a history of the pro-life movement before Roe, and its roots in the anti-war and progressive movements. Though it elaborates on the arguments the non-religious used to justify the preservation of the fetus. It's unfortunately a very neglected historiography and this book does a great job of chronicling the motivations driving and influences of the pro-life movement.

  • After Roe by Mary Ziegler - a history of the pro-life movement after Roe.

  • Defending Life by Francis Beckwith - A book with arguments for why abortion is wrong. The arguments are not at all rooted in religion and is accessible to most everyone.

  • The Ethics of Abortion by Christopher Kaczor - Another great apologetics book on the morality of abortion.


    This Atlantic article article demonstrates how modern medical advances have given the pro-life movement new and important ground.

    If you'd like more resources, I'd be more than happy to supply more links to good resources online for pro-life arguments.
