The legal status of homosexuals is rapidly changing. Many people have opinions, yet few are truly knowledgeable on the issues. Valuable as both a one-stop reference and history book, this resource provides an informed discussion of topics such as lesbian and gay families, same-sex marriage, gays in the military, gay scout leaders, and more.
Chuck Stewart, PhD, is a consultant and writer on the topic of gay and lesbian issues and rights. He is author of ABC-CLIO's Gay and Lesbian Issues: A Reference Handbook.
"Appropriate both for novices investigating the legal implications of homosexuality and for researchers and attorneys, this is recommended for all libraries." - Library Journal "This accessible, informative dictionary describes and illuminates a dynamic, contentious field... Highly recommended for all academic and public libraries." - Choice "An introduction offers a concise history of the gay rights movement that will prove useful for individuals just beginning their research. The well-developed index will be most helpful in ferreting out specific terms, especially for people new to this topic... Homosexuality and the Law would be very appropriate in public libraries of any size, as well as high school and academic libraries." - Booklist
