520 "In this book, a Princeton University-trained
physiological psychologist explores dozens of theories
about what may spur transsexual and transgender (TSTG)
thinking, exposes the myths of fetishism, homosexuality,
prenatal hormones, or child rearing as causes, and
explains the two causes that are supported by current
science. Covering a breadth of topics that include
neuroanatomy, choice, psychodynamics, and transsexual
transition, author Thomas E. Bevan, PhD, synthesizes the
pertinent research regarding transsexualism and
transgenderism across 22 scientific disciplines. The book
covers various gender systems from antiquity to historical
and contemporary cultures that support the biological
basis of transsexualism and transgenderism, addresses
human development from the time prior to conception
through adulthood and potential transsexual transition,
and corrects common myths and assumptions about TSTG
individuals, such as that crossdressing is basically
motivated by a desire for sexual arousal. The book also
includes sections that cite definitions of key terms and
identify related reading, organizations for support, and
current TSTG events worldwide." -- Publisher's
