Overview

Prostitution, Trafficking and Traumatic Stress documents the systemic violence that seems endemic throughout all types of prostitution, including escort, brothel, trafficking, strip club and street prostitution. The book presents clinical examples, analysis and original research which sets about to counteract the commonly held myth about the harmlessness of prostitution. It explores the connections between prostitution, incest, sexual harassment, rape and assault. The title includes case studies which have assessed peer support programmes for women escaping prostitution and assesses the alarmingly common incidence of psychological trauma and clinical symptoms.
