Product Description

Gender identity, an issue that has galvanised the queer community in recent years, goes beyond the nature of male/female to a yet-to-be-traversed region that lies somewhere between and beyond biologically determined gender. In this groundbreaking anthology, three experts in gender studies and politics navigate around rigid, societally imposed concepts of two genders to discover and illuminate the limitless possibilities of identity.

A necessary addition to the litature on gender issues
The main body of this book is taken up with narratives of people identifying as existing outside the bipolar definitions of gender. However it would be wrong to skip the essays that open the book as they provide a clear theoretical framework in witch to interpret what you read.

A great book and a challenge to human rights activists, LGBT activists, the general public and their dogs.

If you care about gender or human rights then you've got to read it.
