TRANSGENDER COMPLETE, A VIRTUAL HANDBOOK
This book is highly recommended by a transgender icon and modern transgender pioneer, Dr. Renee Richards. She wrote, "Dear Joanne.thank you for sending me Transgender Complete. I read it and was impressed with how comprehensive and erudite a discussion it was of all things 'transgender'. Much has happened since my days of involvement in the subject-especially interesting for me to read about all the research in neuro biology as well as recent advances in diagnosis and care for children and young people with transgender issues. Congratulations." - Dr. Renee Richards

“The first thing I noticed is the great amount of research and facts and how
clearly they are presented. The next thing was how it answered so many
questions that have puzzled me all my life. I now understand myself and
feel better knowing I am not a freak.â€
“This is an amazing book. I realize my daughter is not sick but needs my
help facing the world full of people who didn’t read this book. I still can't believe
it took a book for me to understand my own child.â€
