This book examines the life, work and contraversial achievements of
Marie Stopes, author and pioneer of the birth control movement in
the interwar period. As the centenary of the ground-breaking
publication of Married Love approaches, this study traces and
reassesses Marie's remarkable achievements, considering the
literary, scientific and political themes of her life's work. Clare
Debenham analyses how Stope's personal life led her to turn away
from palaeobotany to concentrate on transforming the country's
sexual relationships by writing Married Love. Utilising extensive
unpublished archive research, biographies, letters, and interviews
with her friends and relatives, Debenham demonstrates that Stopes's
work on sexual relationships has overshadowed her considerable
achievements including her scientific career as a paleaobotantist,
her literary success in the interwar period, and her work, with
help from suffragists, in establishing the first British birth
control clinic.
