| Abstract
|
:
|
"This book describes the substantive state of the law with regard to lesbian and gay rights. It begins with some background information to put the modern fight for lesbian and gay rights in its proper historical context, then categorizes lesbian and gay rights claims into three areas - individual rights in private contexts, individual rights in public contexts, and couple or family rights thought of as private but pushing into the public sphere - that add up to a single principle: the right to be human in a modern society."--Jacket.
