Beschreibung:
There has been considerable media comment with regard to AIDS and prostitution, morally and medically, and yet academically the concentration has been social epidemiological research on the prevalence of HIV/AIDS among prostitutes and the debates about legal issues. This volume draws on available literature as part of a wider under- taking to "rethink" prostitution in the 1990s.
