This is an important contribution to the sexual history of Britain.
This valuable study fills a gap in our understanding of modern
Scottish, and British, society, providing as it does a vital
perspective on Scotland's sexual history and its political and
social context. It is unique in exploring the period from 1950 to
1980, covering the immediate post-war and Scotland's sexual
'coming-of-age'. It charts a steady political growth from a deeply
moralistic policy framework towards a less judgmental, global and
scientific context. Davidson and Davis lead us through the Scottish
sexual landscape leading up to the global crisis of HIV/AIDS,
analysing post-war state policy towards issues such as abortion,
family planning, homosexuality, pornography, prostitution, sex
education and sexual heath. Policy-makers, social historians,
teachers and students alike will find this an invaluable resource
on the study of sexuality and policy-making in modern society.
