A completely revised edition of the authoritative ACLU guide to LGBT rights In its fourth edition, this fully revised and updated survey covers the rights of lesbians, gay men, bisexu als, and transgender people under present law, spe cifically in regard to freedom of speech and associa tion, employment, housing, the military, family and parenting, and HIV disease. Utilizing an accessible question-and-answer for mat and nontechnical language, The Rights of Lesbi ans, Gay Men, Bisexuals, and Transgender People pro vides an overview for understanding both the general themes in legal doctrine and the way in which indi viduals can begin the process of asserting rights pro vided by the law. First published in 1975, the volume has evolved in structure and content over the past three decades in accordance with changes in the laws it describes. The inclusion of legal issues regarding bisexuals and transgender people in this edition emphasizes the importance of recognizing specificity and difference within the gay community, particularly due to the strong link between sexual orientation and transgender issues. New to this edition are two appendixes that include contact information for national and regional LGBT legal groups, an overview of the legal system to explain some of the terms and concepts that appear throughout the book, and a summary of highlights of the law state by state.
