Book Synopsis The Battle to Control Female Fertility in Modern Ireland by : Mary E. Daly
Book excerpt: The battle for legal contraception challenged key tenets of Irish identity: Catholicism, large families, traditional gender roles, and sexual puritanism. It is a story of gender, religion, social change, and failing efforts to reaffirm Irish moral exceptionalism.
