Summary:
"The men who fuel the demand for prostitution. Each year more than 800,000 women and children are lured, tricked, or forced into prostitution to meet an apparently insatiable demand, joining an estimated 10 million women already ensnared in the $20 billion worldwide sex trade. While much research focuses on why these women end up in the trade, invetstigators have turned a blind eye toward the "johns" who trigger the demand.Investigative journalist Victor Malarek unmasks the kind of men and organizations that foster and drive the sex trade around the world. With interviewss with both the unrepentant and the reformed, The Johns forces readers to rethink the world’s oldest so-called profession"--Provided by publisher.
