Bücher von Diana E. H. Russell

The Epidemic of Rape and Child Sexual Abuse in the United States evaluates research findings of the last 15 years regarding the statistical prevalence of sexual assault against women and girls.

Examines the relationships between pornography, misogyny and rape, and argues forcibly that the victims of pornography are women everywhere.

Diana Russell analyses and compares the prevalence and causes of three forms of sexual exploitation -- rape, child sexual abuse, and sexual harassment in the workplace. Although public awareness of sexual and non-sexual abuse of adults and children has grown steadily over the past few years, the three categories have been analysed and treated as separate issues. Diana Russell uses an original analytical framework to integrate extensive literature on these topics, revealing numerous links between issues that are often considered separate and distinct.
