"A history of trans before the "trans moment"--

Barry Reay is one of the foremost historians of sex and sexuality In this new book, Reay, Attwood and Gooder recount the recent history of the sex addiction: how it was first conceptualised and diagnosed in the mid-twentieth century.

This 1996 book uses a local study to explore some of the more significant societal changes of the modern western world. Drawing on a range of research techniques, it examines topics such as marriage, fertility, health, the work of women and children, illegitimacy and sexuality, and in so doing presents an exciting example of the 'new rural history'.
