Reviews

Rizkalla's article, together with the other articles in this book, contribute to a `must read' volume for anybody trying to make sense of how Israel has become the sex trade capital of the Middle East and how Israeli society reconciles the systematic sexualization and abuse of women within her borders and by her citizens outside of her borders. Tamara Klinger Levi, Director- Resource Development
