Hur är det att leva som transperson i Sverige i dag? Ges könsbekräftande vård lättvindigt eller får man tvärtom vänta alldeles för länge? På vilka sätt kan minoritetsstress påverka transpersoners hälsa?
Transfrågor syns alltmer i samhällsdebatten. Samtidigt är många osäkra på vad olika begrepp betyder, vad som är ett gott bemötande och hur livsvillkoren ser ut för transpersoner. Trans är en antologi som förmedlar forskning och kunskap på ett tillgängligt sätt, där ämnet också tillåts vara komplext. Korta intervjuer ger ytterligare inblick i olika erfarenheter.
Boken är skriven för alla som vill lära sig mer om transfrågor. Den ger även guidning och stöd för transpersoner och närstående.
Trans är skriven av flera av Sveriges mest kunniga inom området. Redaktörer är Edward Summanen, socionom och genusvetare som arbetat med hälsa för transpersoner sedan 2008, i dag verksam på Transammans – förbundet för transpersoner och närstående, samt Matilda Wurm, leg. psykolog, fil.dr inom hälsopsykologi och lektor i socialt arbete på Örebro universitet, som bland annat forskar och undervisar om hbtq-personers livsvillkor. Kapitelförfattare: Tove Lundberg, leg. psykolog och docent i psykologi. Anna Malmquist, leg. psykolog och docent i psykologi. Meg-John Barker, psykolog och fil.dr i psykologi. Ida Linander fil.dr i folkhälsa. Axel Repka, specialistläkare. Maria Kindstedt, leg. psykolog. Kapitlen av Meg-John Barker är översatta av Desirée Kellerman.
Trans vann Prisma Litteraturpris 2023, kategori Årets facklitterära verk, med följande motivering: ”Edward Summanen och Matilda Wurm har sammanställt en välskriven antologi som tar ett helhetsgrepp om transfrågor. Hantverksmässigt är den imponerande i såväl text som layout, och dess samtidiga bredd och fördjupning gör den unik i sitt slag. Kombinationen av forskarperspektiv och levda erfarenheter ger en nyanserad och mångsidig bild, som vågar vara komplex utan att någonsin vika från lojaliteten med transpersoner som grupp.”
Sagt om boken:
”Författarna, forskare och praktiker med spjutspetskompetens i transfrågor, guidar varsamt och pedagogiskt igenom skilda aspekter av området trans, avlivar myter och ger nya värdefulla perspektiv.”Jack Lukkerz, BTJ-häftet nr 11, 2023
”Om du jobbar inom vården, skolan eller är journalist – läs den här boken. Om du är transperson eller närstående – läs den här boken. Om du över huvud taget vistas i samhället och träffar människor ibland – läs den här boken. Din utökade kunskap och förståelse kan rädda liv.”Jenny Jägerfeld, leg. psykolog och författare
”Allt du behöver för att hänga med i nutidens diskussioner om transfrågor och samhällsinkludering. Smart, enkelt skriven med expertkunskap och bra begreppsdefinitioner.”Wibke Straube, forskare i genusvetenskap vid Karlstads universitet

What can psychology teach us about sex?
How do different bodies and brains respond sexually?
How can we prevent people being stigmatised for their sexuality?
The Psychology of Sex takes you on a tour through the different ways that psychologists have created and sustained certain understandings of sex and sexuality. Bearing in mind the subjective nature of sex, the book explores cultural concerns around sexualisation, pornography, and sex addiction, as well as drawing on research from sexual communities and the applied area of sex therapy.
When so much of our relationship to sex happens in the mind, The Psychology of Sex shows us how important it is to understand where our ideas about sex come from.

We live in a time of uncertainty about relationships. We search for The One but find ourselves staying single because nobody measures up. We long for a happily-ever-after but break-up after break-up leave us bruised and confused.
Rewriting the Rules: An Anti Self-Help Guide to Love, Sex and Relationships is a friendly guide through the complicated - and often contradictory - advice that''s given about sex and gender, monogamy and conflict, break-up and commitment. It asks questions about the rules of love, such as which to choose from all the rules on offer? Do we stick to the old rules we learnt growing up, or do we try something new and risk being out on our own? And what about the times when the rules we love by seem to make things worse, rather than better?
This new edition, updated throughout, considers how the rules are being ''rewritten'' in various ways - for example in monogamish and polyamorous relationships, different ways of understanding sex and gender, and new ideas for managing commitment and break-up where economics, communities, or child-care make complete separation impossible. This book considers how the rules are being ‘rewritten’ in various ways, giving you the power to find an approach that best fits your situation.
