“The Irish Abortion Journey, 1920–2018 holds a potential for intersectionality. … The authors make an outstanding connection between the history and politics of the last hundred years and the social and economic reality of women and Irish life on both sides of the frontier. Adding feminism as the core of the debate, they also pay a debt to many women. The richness of their debate must be extolled because it will serve as the basis for subsequent analysis.” (Cristina Díaz Pérez, Gender, Issue 2, 2020)
