Others of My Kind: Transatlantic Transgender Histories is a 2021 Choice Outstanding Academic Title.

An illuminating exploration of the transatlantic, transgender community that shaped the history and study of gender identity, Others of My Kind is an exciting reconsideration of transgender history, negotiating the historical tensions between scientific expertise and trans self-presentation, visibility and passing, medical progress, and individual privacy.
