Description
Every morning, more than 100 million women swallow a tiny tablet that needs no name. Since its creation fifty years ago, the birth control pill has resulted in changes more powerful than anyone dreamed. It sparked a sexual revolution, reshaped the global economy, and changed the status of women in society the world over.
Some historians consider the pill the most important invention of the 20th century. Yet almost no one knows the story of the peculiar man who invented it. It’s a story that has never been fully told - until now.
