This book traces key developments in the social, legal, and medical history of infanticide from the sixteenth through to the late twentieth century, not only in Britain but also in France, Germany, and South Africa. Focusing in particular on debates about concealment, and on notions of historical continuity and change, it will appeal to historians of crime, gender, medicine and law.
