British physician, later Buddhist monk Michael Dillon has been called "the first trans man," due largely to his being the first person to undergo a phalloplasty. He wrote this first book, a medical/psychological/philosophical work on sexuality and gender, without mentioning his own experiences. He argued with regards to transsexualism, "Where the mind cannot be made to fit the body, the body should be made to fit, approximately at any rate, to the mind." Item #140944449
