Cases and Materials on Sexual Orientation and the Law (American Casebook)

This updated edition continues the casebook's tradition of weaving historical, sociological, and literary perspectives into the legal material. The edition includes a new chapter on equality, which places sexual orientation in the broader context of constitutional claims of discrimination. It also provides up-to-date and expanded treatment of the marriage debate, Lawrence v. Texas, and many other contemporary controversies. Finally, this edition adds coverage of gender identity issues that allows for the exploration of the differences and similarities between sexual orientation and gender identity discrimination.
