by Deborah L . Rhode (Author)
Despite declining prohibitions on sexual relationships, Americans are nearly unanimous in condemning marital infidelity. Deborah Rhode explores why. She exposes the harms that criminalizing adultery inflicts-including civil lawsuits, job termination, and loss of child custody-and makes a case for repealing laws against adultery and polygamy.
