'A frighteningly necessary book: well-written, thoroughly-researched, passionate and very brave.' -- Richard Dawkins 'A courageous, intelligent and important work, rooted in good science and common sense.' -- Jenni Murray 'I'm off the fence...This rigorous and brave book nails the absurd idea that sex is just a "social construct"' -- David Aaronovitch, The Times 'A superlative critical analysis...With this fact-filled, humane, and brave book, a grown-up has entered the room.' -- The Telegraph 'Reasonable, methodical, sane, and utterly unintimidated by extremist orthodoxy, Trans is also a riveting read.' -- Lionel Shriver 'Thank goodness for Helen Joyce... Trans is a searing and at times devastating analysis of an ideological shift that has had a profound influence on many institutions in the West... With the rigour of an investigative journalist, she looks at the history of the trans movement over the past century.' -- Christina Patterson, <i>Sunday Times</i> 'A tour de force. With a fine eye for detail, she brings all the elements of gender ideology together with clarity and precision...simply a must-read' -- Evening Standard 'anyone wanting to understand how transgender rights became such a flashpoint in identity politics - and why a generation of feminists is so determined to stand its ground - should start here with this polemical book by Helen Joyce.' -- Patrick Maguire * Times, Books of the Year 2021 * 'An intelligent, thorough rejoinder to an idea that has swept across much of the liberal world seemingly overnight. Even those outraged by Joyce's positions would benefit from understanding them...Open conversation about such fraught issues is the only realistic path forward.' -- Jesse Singal, <i>New York Times</i> 'A passionate defence' * Financial Times * 'Incisive, compassionate and nuanced...In the first decade of this century, it was unthinkable that a gender-critical book could even be published by a prominent publishing house, let alone become a bestseller.' -- Louise Perry, New Statesman 'I was knocked out by Trans... Biology vs magical thinking has become such a violent debate that most people involved (myself included) can't set verbal foot in it without effing and jeffing till the air is blue. But Joyce is always cool, calm and in complete possession of her extensive collection of facts.' -- Spectator Books of the Year 'A sane, humane book.' -- Daniel Dennett, author of <i>Consciousness Explained</i> 'There are few subjects which need treatment that is at once delicate, thoughtful and brave. Helen Joyce manages all of these things in Trans. Anyone looking to understand this most fraught of issues should start here.' -- Douglas Murray, author of <i>The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race, Identity</i> 'How do we want to live? How do we want our children to live? Helen Joyce tackles this matter. Buy her book for your teenagers. Give it to your boss. Send it to the head of HR. Place it on a bench at the Royal Academy. Sex matters. Tell everyone.' -- The Article 'Helen Joyce has written a very important, enlightened and powerfully-argued book on one of the most controversial issues of our times. For anyone who wants to understand the spirit of the age, its complexities and challenges, and how to map a truly progressive way forward. Riveting from start to finish.' -- Matthew d'Ancona, Editor and Partner, Tortoise Media 'A searing analysis of the transgender debate that has dominated much of public discourse in Scotland in recent years, at least among feminists... I urge you to read Helen Joyce's book... It may well offer you a new perspective on this most troubling of national conversations. It may even change your mind.' -- Susan Dalgety addressing Nicola Sturgeon in the Scotsman 'This is the book every woman should read. It explains how we're being erased, how our arguments are being distorted, and the cost of standing up...Brilliant, coruscating, brave.' -- Jo
