This book provides a fascinating history of sexuality in
twentieth-century Europe and North America. Angus McLaren draws
upon legal, medical and literary sources to demonstrate how modern
sexuality has been shaped by race, class, gender and generational
preoccupations. He explores why the century was punctuated by
sexual panics over a range of issues from abortion, contraception
and marital disharmony to frigidity, homosexuality and AIDS. By
scrutinizing the activities of sexologists, psychoanalysts,
eugenicists, feminists and fascists - as well as the ordinary men
and women they sought to influence - this book tracks the shifting
meanings the western world has given to sexuality.
