Reviews

A powerful call for intersex demedicalization from one of the leading voices in critical intersex studies. -- Susan Stryker, author of <i>Transgender History: The Roots of Today’s Revolution</i> A smart, lucid, and devastating critique of the medical management of intersex from a major thinker in the field. It should be read by anyone interested in gender, medical ethics, or what it means to live in a body—or to live in a world where some bodies continue to be violated. -- Leah DeVun, author of <i>The Shape of Sex: Nonbinary Gender from Genesis to the Renaissance</i>
