 | Lesbians & Child Custody: A Casebook This work represents a collection of the most pertinent writing of the past fifteen years in the United States and Canada on the topic of lesbians and child custody. Articles were selected on the basis of their relevance, succinctness, and representativeness of the various aspects of child custody involving lesbians. Some of the original psychological studies comparing lesbian mothers to heterosexual mothers were sacrificed in favor of the piece by Patricia Falk, a thorough review of the psychological literature. For others, the length of the manuscript was prohibitive as was the case with the thorough, step-by-step Lesbian Mothers Litigation Manual by Donna Hitchens and Roberta Achtenberg of the National Center for Lesbian Rights.
