Synopsis "Worldwide Perspectives on Lesbians, Gays, and Bisexuals: [3 Volumes]"
This interdisciplinary set makes a vital contribution to understanding how LGB rights are progressing--and in some cases, regressing--around the globe. The three volumes look at the lived experiences of LGB people from varied perspectives and provide comprehensive coverage on a wide variety of topics ranging from LGB youth and LGB aging to the approaches to LGB people of different religions, including Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. Chapters focus on topics including the ongoing criminalization of same-sex sexual conduct and how international human rights law can be used to improve the lives of LGB people. Particular attention is paid to the rights of bisexuals, a group often ignored in works focusing on sexual orientation.Volume 1 focuses on history, politics, and culture relating to LGB people; Volume 2 focuses on the laws--domestic and international--governing LGB people; and Volume 3 provides snapshots of the current state of LGB experience in countries worldwide, presented by geographical region: Europe, the Americas, Africa, the Middle East, and the Asia Pacific region.
