Genderqueer and Non-Binary Genders (Critical and Applied Approaches in Sexuality, Gender and Identity) Kindle Edition
The first section provides an overview of historical, legal and academic aspects of this phenomenon. The second section explores how psychotherapeutic, psychological and psychiatric theory and practice are adapting to a non-binary model of gender, and the third section considers the body related aspects, from endocrinology to surgery.
This work will appeal to a wide readership, from practitioners working with non-binary individuals - including psychologists, surgeons, social workers, nurses, psychiatrists, endocrinologists, psychotherapists and counselors, lawyers, and healthcare workers - to researchers interested in the study of gender identities, to students and gender activists.

But it’s more than a helpful guide for to academics and professionals. It’s a beautifully written and sensitively researched book which appeals to a wider audience, which uses examples from the work of activists and individual experience to richly illustrate the importance of addressing the field of genderqueer and non-binary genders. I personally, have learnt a lot from it.
