The Long Sexual Revolution: English Women, Sex, and Contraception 1800-1975
Cook, Hera (Australian Research Council Postdoctoral Fellow, University of Sydney)
Between 1800 and 1975, sexuality in the West was transformed. This book shows how the growing effectiveness of contraception gradually eroded the connection between sexuality and reproduction. It charts how, why, and when attitudes towards sex changed from the repression of the nineteenth century to the sexual revolution of the 1960s.
