Sorry about linking to Amazon, but this the book in question: http://www.amazon.com/Galileos-Middle-Finger-Heretics-Activists/dp/1594206082/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1458697480&sr=8-1&keywords=alice+dreger

The official excuse is that the book does not affirm the lives of LGBT people. Now, when T people are the only ones addressed in the book and their campaign against other scientists is the subject of the book, it's not that hard to connect the dots.

And evidently Lambda Literary doesn't understand the idea of irony.

You need to read Galileo's Middle Finger by Alice Dreger. Then repent and sin no more.

I have to disagree. A condition which affects few people is still important. Particularly important, in the case of "intersex" people (people who are born with some of the characteristics of either sex) is whether they should be surgically reassigned when babies. A good discussion of this can be found in Galileo's Middle Finger by Alice Dreger, which is also a discussion of the dangers of Social Justice from someone on the inside.
