What is True Selves : Understanding Transsexualism ... : for Family, Friends, Coworkers, and Helping Professionals about?
Mildred Brown - one of the country's most experienced clinicians in the field of transsexualism - and journalist Chloe Rounsley have written the first book that combines authoritative information and compassionate insight into the transsexual experience. Filled with wisdom and understanding, this groundbreaking guide paints a vivid portrait of the myriad conflicts transsexuals face on a daily basis and the courage, they must summon as they struggle to reveal their true essence to themselves and to others. Using real-life stories, letters, poems, and other compelling examples, the authors give a clear understanding of what it means to be transsexual. The book breaks down common misconceptions about transsexualism and offers important recommendations for the friends, families, coworkers, and professionals who treat these frequently misunderstood individuals. Guidance is given for dealing with both the phenomena and with the transsexual person. The authors illustrate how the support of caring individuals can be crucial in helping to ease the burden of confusion, fear, and frustration that plagues the lives of transsexual people.
