Description
This series is an introduction to history through the visual examination of a tangible object that represents a specific period of history. Each book starts with an overall view of the object followed by details of its manufacture. How the object and humans interacted over time gives an insight into a specific period detailing how the object has played a part in the making of history. This book tells how now, more than ever, a very simple object plays, and will continue to play, an essential part in the history of mankind. The book looks at the condom through the ages, its current manufacture, as well as its use to provide protection against the AIDS virus.
