This volume assembles hundreds of cases and studies to provide the most accurate and comprehensive picture of the status of pornography in the criminal justice system. Presenting high-level research in an accessible and organized manner, it explores a range of topics, including investigating and prosecuting a case, arguments favoring and opposing decriminalization of pornography, and relationships between pornography, mental disorders, and crime. It also examines criminal justice responses and international laws, policies, attitudes, and definitions of pornography in comparison to those of the United States.
Reviews

"... an exceptionally comprehensive survey of many different dimensions of pornography. ... the author identifies various court rulings, case outcomes, and such matters as police investigations, federal and state punishments, criminal justice personnel as perpetrators, and evidentiary standards on the topic. Altogether, this book provides a starting point for more in-depth exploration of various aspects of pornography. References are quite extensive and useful. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates and above."
