Trans-: WSQ: Fall/Winter 2008

by Paisley Currah (Editor), Susan Stryker (Editor), Lisa-Jean Moore (Editor)

Trans goes beyond anything shown in movies like Transamerica . In this provocative collection, pioneers in the field of transgender studies explore how the concept of “trans” changes in the shifting and porous areas between between young and old, the real and the imaginary, man and woman. Paisley Currah teaches at Brooklyn College and is the co-author of Transgender Rights . Lisa Jean Moore is a professor at Purchase College and is the author of Sperm Counts . Susan Stryker teaches at Harvard University and has won a Lambda Literary Award and an Emmy for co-directing Screaming The Riot at Compton’s Cafeteria .
