A narrative history of hormone use told through the eventful life of Dr. Harry Benjamin, a pioneer in reshaping our notions of sex and gender. Today, it is standard to think of ourselves as hormonal beings. We blame "raging hormones" for the tempests of puberty and midlife and spend our days "running on adrenalin" in "testosterone-fueled" workplaces. Yet this view is relatively recent. Alison Li tells the fascinating history of the rise of hormone use through the life of one of its foremost pioneers. A daring explorer in the areas of sex and aging, as well as a celebrity doctor in 20s New York, German-born physician Harry Benjamin (1885-1986) revolutionized the science of hormones. He devoted his later life to helping people transform themselves. With famous patients such as Christine Jorgensen, Jan Morris, and Renée Richards, he would come to be known as the "Father of Transsexualism." Benjamin's work was groundbreaking in mid-century America, when homosexuality and any behavior that crossed gender lines was not only pathologized but criminalized. However, though his patients remember him as a compassionate physician, today, his approach to transgender medicine would be categorized as heteronormative and outdated. Li positions Benjamin as a complicated figure who both represents a model of his time, and a physician who changed medicine for the better. This gripping history captures the beginning of the gender identity movement and highlights how over the course of the twentieth century Benjamin helped pave the way for our understanding of ourselves as chemically malleable beings.

What happened that changed the priest—the revered healer of antiquity—into a person of science? How was the modern doctor made? Physician is Rajeev Kurapati’s earnest attempt to answer this question and others central to the practice of medicine. For instance, how have the advances of medical technology influenced society’s perception of death? How do physicians balance thinking with feeling when dealing with critically ill patients? How do we meet the needs of patients seeking a personal connection to their doctor in what may seem to be an emotionally deficient medical landscape? Is it possible to overcome some of the compromises we’ve had to make along the way? What is the promise of modern medicine and its limitations? And notably—as medical care becomes more and more digitized and automated, will the medical degree—a universal badge of respectability—continue to hold value? Dr. Kurapati, a practicing hospital physician, succeeds in gracefully exploring the depths of what it really means to be a doctor—and a patient—at this time in our human history, and his blueprint for building a stronger future of healthcare is an important and valuable one.
