Lime 5 : Exploited by Choice [Paperback]

Mark Crutcher (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 1996

This is Mark Crutcher's compelling 320-page expose' of the American abortion industry. A unique and uncensored look at our nation's most wrenching social issue, it has already become a must read for anyone seeking to learn the truth about the abortion issue. It fully documents that women are being sexually assaulted, mutilated, and killed inside perfectly legal abortion clinics. It also shows how pro-choice groups have used raw political power to fight off regulation of the abortion clinic business.

One chapter exposes a massive cover-up of abortion clinic disasters being carried out by an agency of the U.S. government. Other subjects include: the medical evidence of a connection between abortion and breast cancer; how the abortion clinic business is collapsing because of the toll that abortions take on abortionists and abortion clinic workers; the barriers faced by women injured by abortion who seek compensation in the courts and suggestions for solving these problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why the abortion industry is a mess, February 3, 2001

This review is from: Lime 5 : Exploited by Choice (Paperback)

The information found in this book is hard to find elsewhere, but it is well documented. He doesn't make it up. People need to know the risks, especially since the abortion industry is unregulated in comparison to other medical procedures, thanks to politics.

I found the information in Lime 5 shocking and depressing. Women fought for the right to abort, and now that same obsession with that right has led to an unregulated industry with serious health consequences.

Crutcher outlines these risks in this book extremely well, from the risk of death, sterility, breast cancer, even rape and sexual assault. It isn't a book to be read for pleasure, but it is necessary to be well informed. It is a must read on the issue of abortion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Throwing down the gauntlet., December 15, 1997

This review is from: Lime 5 : Exploited by Choice (Paperback)

Crutcher makes no bones about his politics on abortion: he wants it stopped, entirely. After reading this book, the reader will have a difficult time disagreeing. His descriptions of events are often taken verbatim from hospital records, court documents, and autopsy reports. They are not for the squeamish, and bring home a reality that numbers never could. A mother describes sitting at the bedside of her dying 13-year-old daughter: "I had to keep my hand pressed over my mouth to keep from screaming in horror." A respected abortion doctor reflects on his fellows: "Following good standards costs money. And people don't want to do that." An abortion clinic nurse describes her work environment: "The real philosophy is, each woman is worth X amount of money and the more women we can see, the more money we can make." Crutcher throws down the gauntlet, challenging those who defend legalized abortion to clean up their act. Yet he argues that ultimately such efforts will fail because abortion inherently contaminates everyone and everything it touches. The first rule of battle is to know your enemy, and Crutcher left no stone unturned. Lime 5 is painstakingly documented, and his sources are unimpeachable. Whether you agree or disagree with his conclusions, he presents a picture of abortion that every American should contemplate. Lime 5 is a must read for everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well-documented, May 24, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Lime 5 : Exploited by Choice (Paperback)

Very little documentation here? An earlier reviewer commented that "Most of the "so-called" documentation consists of old newspaper accounts, and some are as old as 25 years." Obviously, they didn't read the book; I just counted a page of citations, and at least 75% come from medical journals or court records. "X-files"? Crutcher presents all the facts that he found to come with his conclusion. Sure, it's easy to brush off any idea of CDC bias, but when over 50% of the CDC employees there have ties to the abortion industry, how can you call that conclusion an "X-files conspiracy theory?"
