- This book is the result of over 10 years of anthropological research on gender identities and transitioning experiences in the UK and Europe. The book analyses broad global medical and feminist histories of gender research and changing medico-legal regimes of transition to propose an intimate and multi-dimensional account of transitioning as an experience that takes the body, its ontologies and temporalities, as a primary ethnographic heuristic. The book integrates critical trans theory and anthropology in the first dialogue of this kind, newly situating trans studies in the anthropology of bodies, medical anthropology and the anthropology of science and technology.
