Contraception and Abortion from the Ancient World to the Renaissance pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
This text uncovers the obscure history of contraception and abortifacients from ancient Egypt to the 17th century with forays into Victorian England. The author's thesis is that the ancient world did indeed possess effective (and safe) contraceptives and abortifacients. He evaluates the scientific merit of these ancient remedies and discusses why this rich body of knowledge about fertility control - widely held in the ancient world - was gradually lost over the course of the Middle Ages.
