Eve’s Herbs: A History of Contraception and Abortion in the West
John M. Riddle
In Contraception and Abortion from the Ancient World to the Renaissance, Riddle showed that women from ancient Egyptian times to the fifteenth century had relied on an extensive pharmacopoeia of herbal abortifacients and contraceptives to regulate fertility. Here, he explores why knowledge of these methods was lost in modern times.
