London: Croom Helm, 1977 An inportant bibliography of a woman scientist and one of the earliest advocates of birth control. Marie Stopes (October 15, 1880 - October 2, 1958) was a Scottish author, campaigner for women's rights and pioneer in the field of family planning. Stopes edited the journal Birth Control News which gave anatomically explicit advice, and in addition to her enthusiasm for protests at places of worship this provoked protest from both the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church. I am writing a book which will electrify England" Marie Stopes told a friend, "a book about the plain facts of marriage." "Married Love" was published in 1918, sold over a million copies and was translated into 13 languages. Yet its 37-year-old author, a lecturer in fossil plants, was, she insisted, still a virgin. Marie Stopes went on to open the first free birth control clinic in the British Empire and to win international fame for her work. But while admired by Bernard Shaw, the Duke of Windsor and much of her general public, her crusades aroused the violent opposition of the Roman Catholic Church and she became enmeshed in a series of sensational libel suits. Orderly and brilliant as a scientist, Marie Stopes' emotional life reigned chaotic. She followed a married Japanese professor to Japan, declared her Canadian husband impotent, and so exhausted her second husband that he consented, in writing, to allow her to take any lover she pleased. She remained bra-less and ardent until her late seventies.. First Edition. Hard Cover. New/New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. (more information)
