Drawing on a wide variety of sources—including intimate diaries and letters, patient records, memoirs, medical literature, and popular magazines— The Empty Cradle investigates the social, cultural, scientific, and medical dimensions of infertility over the past three hundred years.Marsh and Ronner explore reactions—among both physicians and husbands—to the emerging scientific evidence that infertility was a condition for which men and women bear equal responsibility.
