Beyond developing a formulation of transgender theory that incorporates the socially constructed, embodied, and self-constructed aspects of identity in the narrative of lived experiences, the authors discuss the implications of this “trans-identity theory” for theory, research, and practice.

From the book reviews: "Gender and Sexual Identity: Transcending Feminist and Queer Theory provides useful tools for therapists and community activists working with adults who identify as transgender or gender fluid. ... There are also three appendices, including a guide for assessing clients' individual readiness, an instrument for assessing cultural competency, and a thorough resource guide for practitioners and researchers working on gender identity issues. ... Admirably balanced in the intersection of theory and praxis, this book speaks to a large potential audience." (Brenda A. Risch, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 59 (36), September, 2014)
