Beyond Recognition : Transgender Antidiscrimination Law, Rhetoric, and Ethical Responsibility (Rhetoric, Law, and the Humanities)

Challenges the notion that transgender antidiscrimination law is a simple question of inclusion versus exclusion. The author uses the tools of rhetorical analysis to understand what the law is called to do, what it actually does, and what its limitations are. In doing so, this work demonstrates how law is relied upon to offer definitive sex categorizations that can be elusive in real life.
