"Fisher's work has brought fresh insight into the ways in which women and men connected sex to children."--Ellen Ross,American Historical Review"Well-written.... Fisher's methodology is interesting and also convincing."--Lesley Hoggart,Journal of Modern History"Fisher's revision of the history of birth control sheds new light on the production of male identity.... One hopes that other scholars will follow Fisher's example in using oral history to figure out the individual dimensions of this major social transition."--Elizabeth Siegel Watkins,SocialHistory of Medicine"This is a brave and ambitious book which breaks new ground."--History Today"A mature piece of work which cuts no corners and includes a wide range of sources, including the Mass Observation archive and oral history."--Longman-History Today Book Awards 2007
