It explores the Associations role in designing and supporting scientific research, employment of scientists, engagement with manufacturers and pharmaceutical companies, and use of its facilities, patients, staff, medical, scientific, and political networks to standardise and guarantee contraceptive technology it prescribed and produced. By taking a micro-history approach to the archives of the Association, this book highlights the importance of this organisation to the history of science, technology, and medicine in twentieth-century Britain. It examines the Associations participation within Western family planning networks, working particularly closely with its American counterparts to develop chemical and biological means of testing contraception for efficacy, quality, and safety. Natasha Szuhan is Lecturer and Researcher in Sociology at the Australian National University and teaches History at the University of Melbourne. Her research interests lie broadly within and around the history of science, technology, and medicine. 001448942 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001448942 61020 $$aFamily Planning Association (Great Britain)$$xHistory. 001448942 650_0 $$aFamily planning$$zGreat Britain$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001448942 650_0 $$aContraception$$zGreat Britain$$xHistory$$y20th century. 001448942 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001448942 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001448942 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSzuhan, Natasha.$$tFamily Planning Association and contraceptive science and technology in mid-twentieth-century Britain.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2022$$z9783030812997$$w(OCoLC)1332951626 001448942 830_0 $$aMedicine and biomedical sciences in modern history. 001448942 852__ $$bebk 001448942 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-81300-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001448942 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1448942$$pGLOBAL_SET 001448942 980__ $$aBIB 001448942 980__ $$aEBOOK 001448942 982__ $$aEbook 001448942 983__ $$aOnline 001448942 994__ $$a92$$bISE
