Book Synopsis

The underlying theme of the 19 articles is that the study of how bisexuality and transgenderism can inform and challenge larger cultural understandings of sexuality and gender. Contributors in a wide range of fields, but more than not involved in literature in an academic context, look at concerns in common, personal and theoretical identity formations, pop cultural icons, western intersections and eastern approximations, and steering queer of identity politics. Published simultaneously as Journal of Bisexuality, v.3, nos. 3/4 (2003). Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
