How attitudes to abortion have changed through the ages — Guardian podcast

In a Guardian Long Read podcast, writer Erin Maglaque explores how attitudes to abortion have shifted across history, arguing that today's debate — framed around life, choice and rights — severs women and their suffering from their historical context. The piece is adapted from her book "Presence: A Hidden History of the Female Body", published by Jonathan Cape, and is read by Lanna Joffrey.
