"Have you ever wondered what the experience of transsexualism or transgenderism (TSTG) is like or what causes these phenomena? This book provides answers to these questions by creating a new genre of literature that incorporates both autobiography and understandable science.
The autobiographical information is based on self-observations of a Ph.D. psychologist and extends for over fifty years from her discovery at age 4 that she was a transsexual. The scientific analysis is organized to parallel the autobiographical story.
This book is intended for those with personal or professional interest in TSTG or those interested in a tale of self-discovery. As a scientist, the author has spent 7 years critically reviewing over 2700 scientific articles and has found over 60 proposed causes of TSTG. Like a detective story, most of these candidate "suspects" can be eliminated by analyzing the available scientific evidence. "
