Wright's book Madame Restell, a biography of the mid-19th century abortion provider, made The New York Times note: "In a heartfelt epilogue, Wright observes that Americans don’t take well to learning history. When it is delivered with this kind of blunt force, however, perhaps they might. Whatever readers end up thinking of Madame Restell, they surely cannot miss the core lesson: that there has never been a culture in human history without abortion. The only variable has ever been the cost."[12]
