About this work

Description

"Seeks to cut through Money's talent for controversy and self-promotion by digging into the substance of Money's theories and achievements. He offers, for the first time, a balanced and probing textual analysis of this pioneering scholar's writing to assess Money's profound impact on the debates and research on sexuality and gender that dominated the last half of the twentieth century."--Provided by publisher
