The Rowman & Littlefield Handbook of Transgender Studies is a comprehensive yet concise overview of important issues, themes, and research on transgender people and populations. Coupling both their scholarly expertise with their lived experiences, the contributors tackle a full gamut of topics, including medical care, education, coming out, bathroom and military politics and possibilities, and the creation of families. The volume opens with an introduction from the editor who outlines her own journey and experience searching for information on “transgender studies” in the early 2010’s. Since then, the field has risen in prominence and is one of the fastest growing areas of research in gender studies. Scholars and students alike will find this to be an accessible and essential primer on the societal forces that impact and shape the lives of transgender people.

Using an array of research methods, popular culture examples, and perspectives, The Rowman & Littlefield Handbook of Transgender Studies provides a valuable introduction to the lives and realities of transgender people in the United States. This handbook provides an accessible and effective teaching tool for those seeking to understand how transgender people navigate and experience their lives and interactions within society. It also provides a guide for understanding how normalizing cisgender (not transgender) experiences across social institutions reproduce inequality against transgender communities in the 21st Century.
