Although the first volume of the Studies in the Psychology of Sex (7 vol., 1897-1928; completed ed. 4 vol., 1936) was banned on charges of obscenity, the series—Ellis's major work—constituted a valuable contribution to the study of sex problems and had an important influence in changing the public attitude toward them.
