This lucid essay poses a profound challenge to scientific research, the creation of social policy, and the future of feminist and gender theory.

Is it a boy or a girl? The first question we ask when faced with a newborn best reflects our deep belief in the inherent and natural difference of sex, as well as how fundamental sex is to our conception of human identity. Anne Fausto-Sterling shows us, through rigorous medical analysis, how the answer is much more complex and must be sought both in the realm of science and in that of politics.

This classic essay examines the construction of sexual identity in biology, society, and history, while proposing a radical paradigm shift in how we understand and structure the human experience.

This second edition, revised after its publication two decades ago, includes updates on innovative research, demonstrates how scientists have historically politicized the body, and dismantles three key dualisms (sex/gender, nature/nurture, and real/constructed).
