The Encyclopedia of Prostitution and Sex Work

I spent yesterday evening working on the website for my friend Melissa's scholarly two-volume encyclopedia of prostitution and sex work, which has just been published by Greenwood Press. The press (and Melissa) have done a beautiful job on it and it looks lovely. It's also a fascinating read, although at US$225 it's more likely to grace the shelves of a public library than someone's private bookshelf.

This is the culmination of more than two years work for Melissa, and she's justifiably pleased with the result.
