A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Jameela Maxwell Boardman - Jameela's Journey

Full title: "Jameela's Journey: From Jonathan to Jameela: The True Story of a Muslim Convert, Transsexual, Revolutionary Guards Design Engineer, Inventor, and Spiritualist Physical Medium!"

"All the way through this human narrative the philosophy is building: Starting from an innocent rural childhood within a very loving family, but secret gender identity issues. Trying to be a normal lad; wished to become a Vicar but messed up at school. Into rally car driving and engineering studies, then onto the design. Met Farrah, an Iranian female mechanical engineer. Became an "intellectual" Muslim.

Married and had two daughters but the gender identity problem would still not go away. Family tragedy, turned to Islam strongly in the aftermath - Powerful emotions - went to live in Iran during the war with Saddam's Iraq. Invited to work for their Revolutionary Guards; amazing experiences with very high Muslims. War ended, returned to the UK to work on solar power.

Facing the gender dysphoria, yet horrendous Muslim reaction on becoming a transsexual. Experiencing the negative side of religion, but then finding Spiritualism, Healing and developing Mediumship. Next 9/11 deception revealed, another life-changing big shock - Growing in spiritual understanding and self-acceptance. Finally into profound philosophy and metaphysics: were New-Science and Spirituality meet in the Alternation of Opposites - and surprisingly, overlapping gender is the central clue!"

In 2015, I interviewed Jameela and asked her about her transition experiences: "I started formal transition at 45 years old, but I knew something was seriously wrong since my first year at infants school. I tried so hard to live as a normal bloke, but so much of me was being squashed. ... Yes, it certainly is a difficult process to face, but step by step we can come through it."
