Tertullian and the Unborn Child: Christian and Pagan Attitudes in Historical Perspective - Medicine and the Body in Antiquity 1st edition

Tertullian of Carthage was the earliest Christian writer to argue vigorously against abortion. This book is the first comprehensive analysis of his attitude towards the foetus and embryo. It is argued that Tertullian's comments on the unborn should be read as rhetoric ancillary to his primary arguments, none of which related directly to abortion
