Looking at the recently passed Defense of Marriage Act, he concludes that it may be unconstitutional. As such, this is of great current relevance, but much of the material has already appeared in law reviews, and the legal language may make it more appropriate for special and academic collections. .

He reviews the bars on marriage based on definition, procreation, custody, and protection of children and the debates centered on equal protection.

Miike, the Hawaii marriage case "Strasser analyzes the arguments against same-sex marriage one by one and concludes that none achieves legal credibility. Looking at the recently passed Defense of Marriage Act, he concludes that it may be unconstitutional.

He anticipates the likely state- and nation-wide impact of the Hawaii Supreme Court's decision..
