About this product
Product Information
At least two generations of transgender, nonbinary, and gender-nonconforming people have emerged since Becoming a Visible Man was first published in 2004, but the book remains a beloved resource for trans people and their allies. Since the first edition's publication, author Jamison Green's writings and advocacy among business and governmental organizations around the world have led to major changes in the fields of law, medicine, and social policy, and his (mostly invisible) work has had significant effects on trans people globally. This new edition captures the changes of the last two decades, while also imparting a message of self-acceptance and health. With profoundly personal and eminently practical threads, Green clarifies transgender experience for transgender people and their families, friends, and coworkers. Medical and mental health care providers, educators, business leaders, and advocates seeking information about transgender concerns can all gain from Green's integrative approach to the topic. This book candidly addresses emotional relationships that are affected by a transition, and brings refined integrity to the struggle to self-define, whether one undergoes a transition or chooses not to. Emphasizing the lives of transgender men--who are often overlooked--he elucidates the experience of masculinity in a way that is self-assured and inclusive of feminist values. Green's inspirational wisdom has informed and empowered thousands of readers. There is still no other book like Becoming a Visible Man in the transgender canon.

Becoming an Visible Man offers brilliant insight into the world of transmen, a much needed insight for the professionals who seek to serve this population or to educate others about the wide range of diversity that exists in the world of human sexuality and gender expression. Anyone with an interest in this topic should consider this book required reading.--American Journal of Sexuality Education, Praise for the 2004 edition: "An intelligent and engaging book. Jamison Green, an extraordinary activist and advocate for FTM transsexuals, demonstrates that he is also an extraordinary writer. Green artfully blends the personal, the informative, and the political, and grounds it all in a generous vision of inclusive communities. He makes a thoughtful and persuasive case for making gender visible." -- Joanne Meyerowitz , author of How Sex Changed, We can all, regardless of gender, benefit from this strong and gentle book about what is really important about gender: self-acceptance and tolerance.--Archives of Sexual Behavior, "Jamison Green tells, with integrity, and in a moving and thoughtful way, his story." -- Dallas Denny , editor, Transgender Tapestry Journal, Praise for the 2004 edition: "When the premier trans activist of a generation decides to write a memoir, we should be grateful. When Jamison Green weaves his personal and political experiences into a magnificent story, it is all the more reason to celebrate. Becoming a Visible Man shows why he is a leading voice to a generation of trans men and trans women and why this issue should be on the top of the agenda for all of us in the twenty-first century." -- Henry Rubin , author of Self-Made Men, " Becoming a Visible Man offers brilliant insight into the world of transmen, a much needed insight for the professionals who seek to serve this population or to educate others about the wide range of diversity that exists in the world of human sexuality and gender expression. Anyone with an interest in this topic should consider this book required reading." -- American Journal of Sexuality Education, Praise for the 2004 edition: "We can all, regardless of gender, benefit from this strong and gentle book about what is really important about gender: self-acceptance and tolerance." -- Archives of Sexual Behavior, Praise for the 2004 edition: " Becoming a Visible Man offers brilliant insight into the world of trans men, a much needed insight for the professionals who seek to serve this population or to educate others about the wide range of diversity that exists in the world of human sexuality and gender expression. Anyone with an interest in this topic should consider this book required reading." -- American Journal of Sexuality Education, Praise for the 2004 edition: "Jamison Green has always known who he is. Others may have been confused, but never he. Now he tells, with integrity, and in a moving and thoughtful way, his story. We learn how he became a visible man--and in the reading, we learn much about being human." -- Dallas Denny , editor of Transgender Tapestry, "Jamison Green tells, with integrity, and in a moving and thoughtful way, his story." -- Dallas Denny , Editor, Transgender Tapestry Journal, "We can all, regardless of gender, benefit from this strong and gentle book about what is really important about gender: self-acceptance and tolerance." -- Archives of Sexual Behavior
