Rezensionen

"This exploration of women's experiences of moral injury after abortion models the highest standards of interdisciplinary qualitative research and clinical care. It should be required reading for community faith leaders, chaplains, and spiritually oriented therapists who want to understand, lament, and help repair moral suffering." Carrie Doehring, PhD, Clifford Baldridge Professor of Pastoral Care and Counseling, Iliff School of Theology

"Moral injuries are often deeply personal and kept private from public view, yet the pathway of recovery intrinsically relates to a person's social relational world because moral identity is not merely individual but interpersonal, societal, and political. This book enfranchises these

otherwise unheard voices that demand our collective attention. May we as readers be as courageous as these women in navigating these haunting moral conflicts." Zachary Moon, PhD, associate professor of theology and psychology, Chicago Theological Seminary

"The authors skillfully deepen our understanding of both moral injury and abortion by studying with rigor and compassion the spiritual and ethical aftermath of the interruption of pregnancy. This is a much-needed text that offers important suggestions on how to support the spiritual healing of people that experience moral injury after an abortion." Gabriella Lettini, PhD, A. H. Reinhart Professor of Theological Ethics and academic dean, Starr King School for the Ministry
