Building on his work in Contraception, Riddle here provides definitive proof that our ancestors possessed and used herbal equivalents of'the pill.' Unfortunately, in the course of witchcraft pogroms, witchcraft, midwifery, and birth control were regarded as aspects of the same heresy and violently suppressed. However, Riddle reveals that the knowledge of herbal contraception was not lost and is practiced in alternative medicine and New Age religion today. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
