Full review with teaching tools at http://www.unleashingreaders.

This is an informative overview of reproductive rights issues in the U.S.

Starting with ancient methods of birth control, this book covers a variety of issues involved with women's attempts to control the number of offspring they have and the social issues that go along with the practices of various eras. The Victorians get a chapter of their own which addresses both the innovations in contraception, the desperate need for it among the poor, and the complicated social structures of the times.
