In this important book, prof. Margaret Marsh, Ph.D., and obstetrician-gynecologist Wanda Ronner, M.D., delve into the origins of the many medical and cultural beliefs surrounding infertility. Drawing on a wide variety of sources -- including intimate diaries and letters, patient records, memoirs, medical literature, and popular magazines -- they investigate the social and scientific dimensions of infertility over the past 300 years. They disclose the voices of those most affected by the physiological and cultural condition of infertility, and restore to the historical record the anguish and hopes of women who experienced infertility. They also demonstrate the profound impact of politics as well as culture on the development of medical practice. B&W photos.
