"The hottest hypothesis in the academic world today is that nature always trumps nurture. John Colapinto's absorbing 'As Nature Made Him' stands as exhibit A."-Tom Wolfe

"From the moment I read about the baby boy whom doctors changed into a girl, I yearned to know the story from the child's point of view: What did he think? What did he feel? How did his life turn out? 'As Nature Made Him' tells that story-hearbreaking, infuriating, but also fascinating-an object lesson in medical hubris and close-the-ranks collusion, and in the tragic results when ideology trumps common sense in thinking about sex and gender. Above all, it's a deeply moving human drama and a testament to the inner strength and courage of the child who never lost touch with who he realy was."-Deborah Tannen
