From rape law in medieval society to online sexual solicitation of young people, this compilation of 22 chapters provides a holistic perspective on the historical, legal/criminal justice, sociocultural, scientific/medical, and symbolic/literary contexts of sexual violence. From the departure point of Liz Kelly's concept of the "continuum of sexual violence" introduced in Surviving Sexual Violence, 1987, Brown (visiting professor, criminal justice, London School of Economics) and Walklate (sociology, U. of Liverpool) introduce theoretical, empirical, investigative and practitioner approaches to this high incidence problem reflecting issues of gender inequality and oppression. The volume includes statistics, supporting figures and tables, further chapter reading and a glossary. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
