The Birth of the Pill: How Four Crusaders Reinvented Sex and Launched a Revolution by Jonathan Eig

3.0

Argh. I hate it when I find errors in nonfiction books. It starts to make me wonder about the research quality of the entire book. I realize that all books have errors but so early in the book? Alfred Kinsey worked at Indiana University, not the University of Indiana (which is is Pennsylvania). There was even a movie about this that premiered on the IU campus! Unfortunately, this happened within the first 20 pages of the book and threw me off for the rest of the book.
But I soldiered through (after taking a long break) because the review from the Book Riot podcast was so positive. It was well-written. It was interesting. For a an overly analytical reader like me, the early mistake stuck with me for far too long.
