Trans Studies is an informative and stimulating read.""-- ""Hypatia: A Journal of Feminist Philosophy"" ""This welcome new anthology brings into sharp focus one of the most productive contributions the field of trans studies has made to scholarship on sexuality and gender: revealing the extent to which dominant, naturalized constructions of the relationship between sexed embodiment and gendered subjectivity traverse not only the heteronormative world, but also much of feminism, queer theory, and other fields that study the creation of social hierarchy from bodily difference. Addressing such diverse topics as educational activism, policy reform, surveillance technologies, cinema, theater, narrative arts, migration, and social movements, Trans Studies ably demonstrates that the field it surveys has indeed arrived as an important new lens for understanding, interpreting and appreciating a wide range of human diversities.""--Susan Stryker ""coeditor of The Transgender Studies Reader v. 1 & 2 and Co-founder of Transgender Studies Quarterly""" Trans Studies brings together some of the most challenging and compelling recent work in the field of transgender studies.
