His book, Criminalising the Purchase of Sex: Lessons from Sweden, is a thorough examination of the Swedish prostitution law, its effects and its actual aims, alongside what is purported by supporters of the legislation. With Sweden's concerted efforts to export their model of prostitution law and countries, particularly in the European Union, pushed to consider the approach, this work is timely and essential reading. - Ella Parsons, English Collective of Prostitues: Saftety for Sex Workers Author InformationJay Levy completed his PhD at the Department of Geography, University of Cambridge.
