  • "Des recettes des Grecs anciens aux lois des Romains, du mariage dans l'Europe médiévale à la pilule des années 70, tout semble avoir été tenté pour éviter la conception ou la naissance. Cette histoire de la contraception étudie tout particulièrement l'expérience et les efforts des femmes pour contrôler elles-mêmes leur fécondité."
  • ""This book, the first history of contraception for almost fifty years, provides a scholarly and highly readable account of procreation and attempts to prevent it from ancient Greece to the late twentieth century. The story, as the author shows, is not one of unalleviated progress, and anything but a simple passage from ignorance to enlightenment. Marshalling evidence from demography, medicine, literature, religious, family and women's history, he shows both that the idea of limiting progeny is ever present in human history and that many contraceptive practices have endured for at least two and a half millennia. In considering questions of both motivation and method, Angus McLaren reveals the intimate interactions between reproductive decision-making on the one hand and social, economic, political and gender relationships on the other."--Back cover."
