Reviews

'Broad in scope yet detailed in analysis, Rethinking Prostitution is to be recommended as a highly informative exposition of contemporary research and thought concerning the sex industry in its many facets and manifestations.' - Community Care 'Extremely accessible and a particularly helpful reference for students of sociology and criminology, or those academics approaching the issue of prostitution for the first time ... many of the myths and stereotypes of prostitution and prostitute-women are broken down and challenged.' - British Journal of Criminology
