A comprehensive yet concise overview of important issues, themes, and research on transgender people and populations.
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.

J.E. Sumerau (she/they) is associate professor and director of applied sociology at the University of Tampa. She is the author of eleven books and over 75 articles and chapters at the intersections of sexualities, gender, health, violence, and religion.
