Riddle uncovers the obscure history of contraception and abortifacients from ancient Egypt to the 17th century with forays into Victorian England. He explores whether it was possible for premodern people to regulate their reproduction without resorting to dangerous surgical abortions, the killing of infants, or the denial of biological urges.
