Recenzii
Prize: Joint winner of the 2012 Philip Abrams Memorial Prize for the best first and sole-authored book within the discipline of Sociology. 'This important and timely book speaks to the gap in the literature concerning trans people and embodiment. Recognizing Transsexuals is theoretically sharp, drawing on the recent insights concerning gender and politics that have developed within the trans communities and elsewhere. It will be of interest to anyone concerned with gender equality, bodily change, and gender diversity.' Surya Monro, University of Huddersfield, UK ’Recognizing Transsexuals resonates with current personal, political and institutional shifts around gender diversity in the UK, Europe and North America. Its focus on trans embodiment and bodily aesthetics fills a gap in trans studies literature, and offers a distinctive voice to work on gender and the body. Davy fuses the personal and political to provide important theoretical and empirical reflections on issues central to "recognition" debates.' Sally Hines, University of Leeds, UK 'This book is an important read, not only for the insight provided into the lives of trans people and transsexual embodiment, but also for the social, cultural, and economic impact these ideologies will have on our own understanding of who we are as male and female, both, or neither.'
