sin at all. It is the business of law to prevent or punish wilful injuries to individuals or to the common order."

The Law School of Duke University, as well as the various contributors themselves, deserve the highest approbation for having achieved a truly important contribution to rational thinking on the whole question as to how much right society has to control, govern, or take possession of an individual's bodily functions

and emotional orientation.

It can be said without the least hesitancy that each of these papers. will be of invaluable assistance in the presentation of the classes at ONE Institute; also, that any serious student of human rights in sexual matters will want the volume as a companion to ONE Institute Quarterly's "The Right of Association," Winter, 1960.

A Landmark in the Legal Rights of Homosexuals Sample text:

The Growing Recognition of the Concept That Individual Sexual Tendencies and Private Sexual Conduct Are of No Proper Concern to the Law Is Rooted in the Principle that Freedom of Choice in Such Matters Are Aspects of Personal Liberty Entitled to Constitutional Protection.

The recognition that homosexuality is not inherently evil or a menace to civilization has advanced in step with the principle that private morality and sin are matters beyond the pale of the law. It has thus become increasingly recognized that human and civil rights include respect for and legal protection of the individual's freedom of choice-in matters pertaining to sex as well. In its proper perspective, the law is legitimately concerned with the protection of youth and with guarding the public against forcible or otherwise predatory conduct. But sexual behavior involving adults only and engaged in privately and by consent of the parties is completely harmless, and society has no legitimate right to interfere. To the contrary, since it so deeply effects basic human feelings and drives, an adult's freedom of sexual choice, insofar as the choice is exercised privately and by consent, is entitled to constitutional protection, equally and as fully as the right of free speech, religion, and free association and assembly.
