I was not familiar with Hollinger before picking this book up, but I was not disappointed. "The Meaning of Sex" is far and away the best book I have come across presenting and defending the Christian vision of human sexuality and what makes for (alternatively) flourishing or degradation. While a few chapters can be a bit dry (the author is an ethics professor!), be sure to especially read chapters 3 ("The Christian Worldview and Sex") and 4 ("The Purposes of Sex"). Besides consistently advocating the right positions on the issues (i.e. he is biblical and almost always within the mainstream tradition of historical Christian orthodoxy), what is most valuable about Hollinger's study is the narrative, big-picture approach he takes to each and every particular ethical issue. This book looks for the "why", not just the "what", of God's commands and the biblical structuring of sexual ethics. Simply put, Hollinger demonstrates how the Christian vision makes sense of the world we find ourselves in, in the widest, most coherent way possible--and is thus deeply satisfying. Read Hollinger!
