Matt Peters, Graphic Medicine:
“The book includes the disclaimer that the co-creators aren’t physicians and that their goal was to “increase the reach of public information” (page 3) rather than provide medical advice. However, they cover their topic with the thoughtfulness and thoroughness of a trusted care provider. Their text serves as an effective antidote to the heated rhetoric that has taken up so much of the space in the national conversation about abortion.
Against the backdrop of that rhetoric, a short, digestible book that offers honest, practical, and non-judgmental advice about abortion is a welcome addition to the world of graphic medicine. Rotman, Coffey, and Galloway cut through the legal and medical jargon, offering helpful illustrations and simple instructions in their place. For many readers, their work should lift some of the weight from a difficult situation.”
