Review
.,."Particularly important is the integration and explanation of the development processes that are linked to psychosexual outcomes, and the book is especially strong in its detailed review of the existing literature and recent empirical and clinical findings...a stellar contribution to the library and repertoire of individuals working with children and adolescents." --Michael Cunningham, Ph.D., Tulande U, New Orleans, "Readings," September 1996
"In their book, Zucker and Bradley have brought together and critiqued two very large psychological literatures, one from normative gender development and the other from the clinical treatment of gender identity disorders. In addition to serving as a reference text for those working in those two areas, the book will be valuable to both clinicians and researchers by providing a rich collection of case studies as well as quantitative summaries of existing data." --Beverly I. Fagot, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, University of Oregon, Eugene
"Ken Zucker and Susan Bradley have made a major contribution to child psychiatry with this encyclopedic and extraordinarily informative volume." --Susan Coates, Ph.D.
.,."This book will be of interest to child and adolescent psychiatrists, general psychiatrists, and other therapists with an interest in gender identity and sexuality, including transsexualism. ...this volume represents a comprehensive discourse on all of the up-to-date and extant literature and is highly recommended as a reference text." --Gregory Motayne, "The Canadian Journal of Psychiatry," October 1997
.,."Research and case examples are presented in enough detail to be interesting and understandable but not in so much depthas to become boring...This book is well worth reading for the information that it presents about the normative and atypical development of gender identity, even for clinicians who may never see a juvenile who presents with gender identity issues." --Gregory K. Lehne, Ph.D, "Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease"
