Prostitution, Trafficking and Traumatic Stress

Prostitution, Trafficking, and Traumatic Stress documents the violence that runs like a constant thread throughout all types of prostitution, including escort, brothel, trafficking, strip club, pornography, and street prostitution. The book presents clinical examples, analysis, and original research, counteracting common myths about the harmlessness of prostitution. It explores the connections between prostitution, incest, sexual harassment, rape, and battering; looks at peer support programs for women escaping prostitution; examines clinical symptoms common among prostitutes; and much more. Educational Book Review says, "An eye-opening, landmark book that WILL FOREVER CHANGE THE WAY WE VIEW PROSTITUTION. . . . Good reading for clinicians and researchers."Farley, Melissa is the author of 'Prostitution, Trafficking and Traumatic Stress' with ISBN 9780789023780 and ISBN 0789023784.
