“Wide-ranging in its explorations, this slim volume aims to provide
some wisdom at a pivotal moment in trans history. . . . There is
much to recommend this text, including its introductory review of
some recent trans scholarship and its gloss of contemporary
challenges facing the trans community.”
*Hypatia*
"More than just an account of gender variability, this book
provides suggestions for reframing our perceptions of the gendered
body and opens up tantalizing possibilities for the future. This is
an essential purchase for all libraries serving gender studies
programs at all levels."
*Resources for Gender and Women's Studies: A Feminist Review*
"This is no inaccessible tome full of prose and obfuscating jargon;
it is friendly and approaches a broad range of subjects, making it
a good 'gateway book' for the field of transgender studies."
