نبذة مختصرة : Michelle Forcier, Gerrit Van Schalkwyk, and Jack L. Turban, present their multidisciplinary, collaborative volume Pediatric Gender Identity: Gender-affirming care for Transgender & Gender Diverse Youth in 2020. In it, the editors offer a broad overview of the current research, clinical recommendations, and conceptual frameworks in the field concerning affirmative care for transgender and gender diverse (TGD) youth. In addition, more insight is provided on diversity support and resiliency encouragement, along with discussions about primary and specialty care, neurodevelopmental and psychosocial needs of TGD, and recognized hormonal and surgical recommendations. In this review, I will describe the main contents of the volume according to four sections: foundational knowledge, psychosocial and supportive approaches, clinical care and treatment, and cultural and legal perspectives. The first section covers Chapters 1 to 4; the second section, from Chapter 5 to 10; the third section, from Chapter 11 to 17; the remaining chapters are discussed in the last section.
