The Sodomy Cases: Bowers v. Hardwick and Lawrence v. Texas

by David A.J. Richards

Book Overview

For America's gay community, the question of rights is often reduced to the issue of privacy. Until recently the issue of 'non procreational sex' continued to trigger a double standard for gay men. This book shows how two landmark cases nearly 20 years apart shed light on America's evolving views of privacy.
