What articulations between bodies, genders and desires are required socio-culturally for recognition of what is human? What happens with those people who do not meet the heteronormative criteria of intelligible life? Are psychology and medicine part of the solution, or part of the problem? This pioneering book presents a novel analysis of transgender constructions within a clinical setting, examining the experiences of "transsexuality in treatment" interpreted through psychological, feminist, post-structuralist and queer theories. Based on research that includes interviews with the clinic’s professionals and users, notes from its group therapy sessions, and analysis of its manuals and scientific productions, the author shows how the psychological sciences not only "treat" transsexuality, but construct it in each of its elements: corporality, sexuality, identity, performances and vulnerability. Looking at the work of philosophers such as Michel Foucault, Judith Butler and Paul B. Preciado, this book also highlights how the productive character of language and other subjectifying technologies are linked to the symbolic and material violence that falls on these bodies, deconstructing the bio-scientific and sociocultural conceptions that nourish the understanding of trans life experiences that are medicalised and psychopathologised.No Body is a valuable book for students, researchers and professionals in critical psychology, psychiatry and social sciences, and anyone interested in the fields of transsexuality and homo/transphobia, feminism and queer theory, discourse analysis and the construction and signification of the body, gender and sexualities.

"Ni homme ni femme est le premier livre, en français et destiné au grand public, à faire le point sur une question quasiment taboue et presque inconnue de la plupart d'entre nous : comment vit-on avec des organes génitaux atypiques ? Pour y répondre, Julien Picquart a rassemblé des témoignages inédits sur le sujet. Quinze personnes racontent leur quotidien, leur parcours, leur vie sentimentale et sexuelle, les traitements hormonaux et chirurgicaux. Les parents témoignent aussi et reviennent sur leurs réactions quand ils ont découvert que leur enfant n'était pas comme les autres. Pour la première fois également, des médecins parlent, de leurs certitudes et de leurs doutes. Toutes ces personnes nous confrontent à leurs interrogations : faut-il ou non opérer ? N'y a-t-il vraiment que deux sexes ? Quelle importance doit-on accorder aux organes génitaux ? Jusqu'où peut aller notre tolérance ? Un ouvrage accessible et profondément humain, qui bouleverse nos certitudes." --

Few topics are more contested today than gender identity. In the fog of the culture war, complex issues like gender dysphoria are reduced to slogans and sound bites. And while the war rages over language, institutions and political allegiances, transgender individuals are the ones who end up being the casualties.Mark Yarhouse, an expert in sexual identity and therapy, challenges the church to rise above the political hostilities and listen to people's stories. In Understanding Gender Dysphoria, Yarhouse offers a Christian perspective on transgender issues that eschews simplistic answers and ap
