Summary
"Sex for Sale: Prostitution, Pornography, and Erotic Dancing" presents an innovative, in-depth, and nuanced analysis of sex work, its risks, and benefits, and pays attention to newer and changing types of sex work and its actors, as well as public policies and laws that govern its trade. Now in its third edition, new chapters explore the use of technology among street sellers, blurring the line between street and online solicitation, in addition to chapters on historical prostitution, transgender workers, illicit massage parlors, male strippers, commercial webcamming, alternative policies and legal systems, and the sex workers' rights movement. -- From publisher's description.
