- Summary:
- Sex can be a complicated and sensitive matter. And for decades, it was too sensitive for science and medicine; they didn't even try to study it. But in the 1950s and '60s, that finally changed. Our understanding of how sex works increased and so too did our ability to solve sexual problems. Over the last 40 years Horizon has followed this sexual revolution - from IVF and the contraceptive pill, to Viagra, genetic engineering and frozen embryos. In this Horizon Guide, Professor Alice Roberts investigates the staggering progress in our understanding of sex and asks can science save the day when sex goes wrong?
