Abstract

This paper focuses on Plato and Aristotle's views about the abortion. It firstly reviews Plato's reflections on this topic starting from his philosophical works about the ideal state; it secondly analyses Aristotle's biological thought, with particular attention to embriology. Another issue considered is the importance of eugenetic criterion in connection of family planning and ancient Greek demography. It also evaluates Hippocrates and hippocratics physicians' assessments of the risk involved as a reflection of communis opinio on this topic
