The morning-after pill
Uncovering the truth
January 2007
John R Ling
The morning-after pill is now more widely available than ever before. It is marketed as the ideal early solution to unwanted pregnancies. It is given a key role in the drive to combat teenage pregnancies.
But serious ethical issues are at stake. Can the morning-after pill act to destroy a human embryo? Does the morning-after pill encourage sexual promiscuity?
In this comprehensive but plain-speaking book John Ling sets out how the morning-after pill works and its wider social effects. Taking in evidence from science to philosophy, and from God’s law to British law, he argues that the morning-after pill demands a powerful Christian response.

Contraception: A pro-life guide
March 2005
Dr O E O HotonuM
MB ChB BSc (Hons) MRCOG MPhil
The aim of this book is to provide background knowledge on how contraceptives work. As a result we hope that Christian readers will be better equipped to make wellinformed ethical decisions. Above all else the book explains the difference between those contraceptives which can act to destroy a human embryo and those which, according to the best available medical evidence, do not.
