Here are real-world matters of definition and self-definition (including sexual identity, gender identity, and anti-identity), meticulous analyses of stressor and health outcomes, an extensive coverage of research methodology concerns, and critical insights into the sociopolitical context of LGBT individuals’ health and lives. -Developmental issues across the lifecourse -Human rights and ethical issues -Global perspectives of LGBT health -Physical and mental health issues -Issues and concerns of racial/ethnic minority groups -Health concerns of lesbian and bisexual women -Prejudice and homophobia as social stressors -A comprehensive review of quantitative and qualitative research methodology -Tobacco, alcohol, and substance use issues -The current state of LGBT health care and strategies for improvement -The impact of the HIV/AIDS epidemic on LGBT communities The Health of Sexual Minorities is an advanced-level text whose scope and accessibility makes it useful to a broad audience.
