DESCRIPTION In Aphrodite’s Trade award-winning author, historian, and libertarian conservative Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook takes the reader on a journey of discovery from the biological foundations of prostitution among early humans to its sacred functions in the religions of the ancient world, then onto its vital role as a commercialized occupation in the 21st Century. Basing his findings on well established primatological, anthropological, sociobiological, mythological, and archaeological data, he reveals what few have dared contemplate: because prostitution began as a survival mechanism among our ancestors several million years ago, it is literally part of our DNA. Rather than expending valuable time, money, and resources trying to suppress it, the scholar argues, society would today actually benefit by understanding, accepting, and decriminalizing it. Foreword by The Happy Hooker, Xaviera Hollander. Back cover blurbs by the late Margo St. James (founder of COYOTE and St. James Infirmary), Carol Leigh (cofounder of ACT UP), Norma Jean Almodovar (founder of ISWFACE), and Dolores French (founder of HIRE).

”This is the first book I’ve ever read that provides a holistic history of prostitution, from its beginnings as a survival mechanism in the mists of prehistory to its culmination in the 21st Century as a commercialized business. . . . Mr. Seabrook, a Conservative Christian, follows in the footsteps of other religious notables who have favored decriminalizing prostitution; namely Saint Augustine and the founder of The National Review, William F. Buckley Jr.” - XAVIERA HOLLANDER, author of bestselling book The Happy Hooker
