Abstract

Through reference to empirical experience this chapter briefly outlines the primary concern of this book, the difficulty clinicians face in disclosing a diagnosis of atypical sex. It provides an exploration of terminology and explains why the term ‘atypical sex’ is used in place of other more common terms such as ‘intersex’ or ‘disorder of sex development’. It continues by providing a synopsis of each of the book’s chapters from two to eight.
