Nice selection

Weitzer's collection spans a wide range of issues from the need to do more research in this area, to legal debates, to international support services. Contributors include Wendy Chapkis and Jacqueline Lewis. Weitzer is careful to include a variety of perspectives concerning sex work, from those who celebrate paid sexuality to those who believe receiving money is recognition of being someone else's property. He also has a nice list of recommended readings, although it's only two pages.
