Viewed through Darwin’s prism, abortion can be seen as a tool that women use to increase their survivability, their ability to compete for limited resources, and even their ability to have greater future reproductive success.

He had his two-story house gutted, sanitized and treated for mold in October. His new lawn was in before Thanksgiving, but all around him were devastated houses. Neighbors said they were waiting for insurance money or a government handout, but mostly, he thinks, "it was just indecision." Intent on saving their subdivision, he and neighbor Al Petrie, 53, decided to form a limited liability company...
