essay
900 Contraception: A History of Its Treatment by the Catholic Theologians and Canonists, by John T. Noonan, Jr. (read 5 June 1967) This is a splendidly researched book and is the definitive work on its subject.

The last chapter tells of the fight at Vatican II for the Declaration on Religious Freedom. Some of the chapters were a little heavy--e.g., Durkheim's Dilemma--but it was never a chore to read this very good book.… (mer)
