Book Reviews of Transition and Beyond, Observations On Gender Identity

Book Review: Compassionate & Insightful
Summary: 5 Stars

Finally! A compassionate and insightful perspective on transgender issues from a mental health care practitioner. Although I am not trans, I do a lot of research on the issue and am fascinated with what transgendered individuals have to offer a society that refuses to see past a dichotomous view on gender. So many of the things that other professionals have to say are very clinical and biased - they rarely approach gender identity as something other than a diagnosis to be scrutinized and quantified. I would recommend this book to a wide audience - professionals, partners, friends, coworkers, family, and anyone who takes issue with the way that our society constructs and enforces gender.
