Over the last two decades, transgender people have expanded our understanding of gender even further, introducing to the mainstream the concept of \"gender identity,\" an individual's understanding of their own gender. Along the way, there have been numerous debates and controversies (i.e., what is the influence of biology on gender, how does the media impact gender and gender roles, and do transgender people reinforce gender stereotypes or help to free us from them?). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn an easy-to-read format that includes questions and short responses, \u003cem\u003eGender: What Everyone Needs to KnowR \u003c\/em\u003e guides the reader through basic definitions; the history of gender as a concept; the role of biology, psychology, and culture on gender; and gender norms over time and across the globe.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLaura Erickson-Schroth\u003c\/strong\u003e, MD, MA, is a psychiatrist working with LGBTQ people in New York City.
