Gender Identity and the Law is the first law textbook to focus on the legal treatment of transgender, gender nonconforming, and non-binary individuals, primarily through U.S. materials but also incorporating legal developments in other parts of the world. The book will provide students with an understanding of the decades-long revolution in law and society regarding the concepts of gender identity and expression that affect trans people in numerous settings. From gender variation in the ancient world to contemporary conflicts such as the ban on military service by transgender persons, the book empowers students to address anti-trans prejudice and to help meet the needs of transgender persons.
