Overview

This collection of essays examines four U.S. Supreme Court decisions on birth control issues, including dissenting opinions and related debate. Griswold v. Connecticut (1965) ruled that the right to privacy protects marital use of birth control. Eisenstadt v. Baird (1972) extended that to unmarried adults. Carey v. Population Services International (1977) extended it to minors. Roe v. Wade (1973) held that the right to privacy includes a right to abortion. Each case is richly examined, and legal experts explain the lasting ramifications of each court case and ruling.
