This book is a collection of essays about the current theory and practice of transgendering children. Essays are written against the grain of the popularised medical definition of 'the transgender child' as a young person whose 'true' gender lies in the brain, or pre-social 'identity'. Contributors contest this diagnosis from a range of perspectives, including as social theorists, psychotherapists, persons living as transgender, individuals who have de-transitioned, and parents of adolescents identifying as transgender. They argue that medicine, social policy and the law build ideas about 'the transgender child', and contend that it is politics, not science, which accounts for the exponential rise in the number of children diagnosed as transgender by gender identity clinics. They conclude that today's medical and social trend for transgendering children is not liberal and progressive, but politically reactionary, physically and psychologically dangerous and abusive.

Trans people suffer from significant health disparities in multiple areas, one of which is ​​public health. Real or perceived stigma and discrimination within biomedicine and healthcare delivery, in general, can affect trans people's desire and ability to access appropriate care, thereby impacting their own health. The biggest barrier to both safe hormone therapy and adequate general medical care for transgender patients is the lack of access to care. Despite guidelines and data supporting the current transgender medicine treatment paradigm, trans patients report that a lack of providers experienced in trans medicine represents the single largest component inhibiting access. Transgender care is not taught in conventional medical training programs and very few doctors have the necessary knowledge and level of comfort. As such, this book provides up-to-date information on the health of transgender people. Chapters address such topics as standards for transgender care, the treatment of gender dysphoria, the lived experiences of transgender persons in Brazil and India, and much more.

Autor majstrovsky využíva vedomú a silnú reflexivitu na všetky aspekty a fázy svojho skúmania. Zároveň poskytuje kultivovaný a znalosťami podložený ponor do prežívania rodovo nebinárneho človeka, prezentovaný a prítomný v celom texte. (prof. PhDr. Viera Bačová, DrSc) Kniha zaujímavým spôsobom prepojuje tri dimenzie situovanosti autora (vedca, aktivistu a človeka v procese tranzície). Táto špecifická situovanosť a pozicionalita je zároveň systematicky a citlivo reflektovaná v celom procese výskumu (interakcie so skúmanými). Preto sa domnievam, že táto kniha má aj vzdelávací rozmer - môže slúžiť ako metodologická učebnica autoetnografie pre odbory, ako sú sociálna antropológia či sociológia. (Mgr. Petra Ezzeddine, PhD)

Nora wordt geboren als Aaron. Al van kinds af aan voelt ze dat ze niet in het juiste lichaam geboren is. Maar om de weg naar zichzelf te vinden moet ze heel wat obstakels overwinnen: zowel in de maatschappij als in zichzelf. Dit is haar eerlijke en ontroerende verhaal. 'Elke mens gaat in het leven op zoek naar zichzelf. Allemaal bewandelen we onze eigen weg op zoek naar ultiem geluk. Daarin verschillen we niet van elkaar. Het is nu tijd om mijn leven als één geheel te zien, en niet langer in twee duidelijke delen - voor en na mijn operatie. Mijn toekomst lacht naar me. En ik lach terug. Ik ben niet langer bang voor het onzekere, voor de liefde of om nieuwe mensen te ontmoeten. Sterker dan ooit zal ik elk avontuur met beide handen grijpen. Want ik ben Nora. Helemaal Nora.'
