Religious Speech, Hatred and LGBT Rights provides "an extensive and comprehensive overview of the legal framework and existing case law on a national, regional and international level, the author methodically answers ... questions [about the legal foundations for addressing homophobic and transphobic speech], and establishes a possible benchmark for balancing FORB and LGBTQIA+ rights".
