			When a baby is born whose reproductive organs do not fit neatly
into a binary idea of biological sex, they are deemed intersex.
Often, doctors and parents decide to do surgery soon after birth,
and in many cases administer hormones, to make intersex children
fit into male/female categories. Intersex is treated as a medical
problem: their physiologies are quickly dismissed as impossible,
freakish, or even monstrous. Hermaphrodite Logic places the
sexually indeterminate at the centre, for a change. Jules Joanne
Gleeson offers a fresh perspective for understanding, speaking of,
and celebrating indeterminate lives. Rather than focus on
'ambiguity' (or its still vaguer variant, 'fluidity') Gleeson
focuses on indeterminacy-the bodies, sentiments and experiences
that can not be folded in two. The indeterminate cannot help but
exist between categories. Hermaphrodite Logic foregrounds the
experiences of sexually indeterminate figures both current and
historical, and seeks to build up a thoroughgoing case for our
emancipation.

			The first collection of its kind, Transgender Marxism is a
provocative and groundbreaking union of transgender studies and
Marxist theory. Exploring trans lives and movements, the authors
delve into the experience of surviving as transgender under
capitalism. They explore the pressures, oppression and state
persecution faced by trans people living in capitalist societies,
their tenuous positions in the workplace and the home, and give a
powerful response to right-wing scaremongering against 'gender
ideology'. Reflecting on the relations between gender and labour,
these essays reveal the structure of antagonisms faced by gender
non-conforming people within society. Looking at the history of
transgender movements, Marxist interventions into developmental
theory, psychoanalysis and workplace ethnography, the authors
conclude that for trans liberation, capitalism must be abolished.
