About the Human Life Review
The Review
Since 1975, the Human Life Review has been the only publication of its kind in the world: an academic-quality journal devoted to civilized discussion of legal, philosophical, medical, scientific, and moral perspectives on all life issues. We cover not only abortion but also euthanasia, suicide, neonaticide, genetic engineering, cloning, fetal and embryonic stem cell research and experimentation, and new issues as they emerge. We also deal with underlying issues of family and society.
Each issue of the Review features original articles and an Appendix of opinion columns.

ALSO SPEAKING:
Anne de La Rochefoucauld Manice, born and educated in France, moved to the United States in 1975 with her husband John, with whom she reared 4 boys and in time welcomed 4 daughters-in-law and 11 grandchildren. In 1986, Manice helped Sylvana Cowden-Guido found Options, the first crisis pregnancy center in Manhattan. She also worked at Expectant Mother Care for four years before founding (with William Powers) Pregnancy Help NYC, which she actively ran and managed both as executive director and board member for 15 years. A former member of the board of the New York Audubon Society, Manice teaches a course on bird identification and nature in New York City public schools. She is also president of the Arboretum des Grandes Bruyères in Ingrannes, France.
Nicole Moore, a native New Yorker, began her pro- life work in 2017 as an online teacher, helping women understand the basics of theology of the body and how to chart their cycles naturally. While doing this work with young women, she also participated (and sometimes) coordinated prayer vigils at local abortion clinics in the New York City area–something that she still does today as the executive director at Pregnancy Help, Inc. After her online work with young women came to a close, Nicole began working with PHI in 2020, just before the pandemic. Since then Nicole and her board have worked to rebuild PHI and make it a safe haven for women in crisis pregnancies. Most of all, Nicole enjoys meeting the women who come to the center as each and every woman has shown her the great gift that women are to the world.
