The aim of this collection of previously unpublished essays is to probe the philosophical aspects of rape as act, crime, practice, and institution. Among the issues examined are the nature and harmfulness of rape, the relation of rape to racism, sexism, and other forms of oppression, and the legitimacy of various rape-law doctrines.
