Reviews
Throughout this book, Roger Davidson brings to his sources the forensic attentions of a social historian at the peak of his powers. And although it could hardly be considered gentle Fireside reading, Illicit and Unnatural Practices comprises a valuable resource for legal and medical scholars studying Scotland, and those investigating the policing of dangerous sexualities in twentieth century Europe., Davidson brings a mastery of the sources, a deep understanding of the particularities of the Scottish legal system, and a firm grasp of the historical shaping of sexual norms and values to the case studies in this book. The result is a superb insight into the complexities and evolution of the legal regulation of 'unnatural' sexualities in Scotland.
