520 | |a This book looks at the social and historical context of prostitution, exploring the forms and practices prostitution has assumed in many cultures over many centuries.

The authors expose the inextricable interweaving of scores of cultural dilemmas: women as property, pornography and the fear of sexuality, religion and promiscuity, sex and social class, and the control of venereal disease. | ||
