Condition: As New. : Disponible por primera vez, más de 50 años después de su escritura, la autobiografía de Michael Dillon/Lobzang Jivaka (1915-62), el médico británico y novicio monástico budista conocido principalmente por los estudiosos del sexo, el género y la sexualidad por su transición pionera de mujer a hombre entre 1939 y 1949, y por su innovador libro de 1946 Self: A Study in Ethics and Endocrinology. Aquí por fin está la extraordinaria historia de la vida de Dillon/Jivaka contada con sus propias palabras.Out of the Ordinary captura los diversos viajes de Dillon/Jivaka (a Oxford, a la medicina, a través del mundo en barco) dentro de las principales narrativas de sus viajes de género y religiosos. Dillon/Jivaka comienza cronológicamente con su infancia en Folkestone, Inglaterra, donde fue criado por sus tías solteronas, y cuenta sus días en Oxford inmerso en la teología, los clásicos y el remo. Relata su transición hormonal mientras trabajaba como mecánico de automóviles y vigilante de incendios durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y su transición quirúrgica bajo Sir Harold Gillies mientras el propio Dillon asistía a la escuela de medicina. Detalla sus viajes por todo el mundo como cirujano de barco en la Marina Mercante Británica con extensos comentarios sobre sus interacciones con súbditos coloniales y postcoloniales, seguido de su "salida del armario" por la prensa británica mientras servía a bordo del The City of Bath.Out of the Ordinary no es sólo un registro destacado de una transición sexual temprana, sino también un relato único de la conversión religiosa a mediados del siglo XX. Dillon/Jivaka narra su cambio gradual del cristianismo anglicano a los sistemas espirituales esotéricos de George Gurdjieff y Peter Ouspensky al budismo Theravada y finalmente Mahayana. Concluye sus memorias con las controvertidas circunstancias de su ordenación monástica budista en la India y el Tíbet. En última instancia, aunque Dillon/Jivaka murió antes de convertirse en monje, su ordenación como novicio fue significativa: le convirtió en el primer hombre blanco europeo en ser ordenado en la tradición budista tibetana.Out of the Ordinary es una publicación histórica que libera una voz distinta de la historia del movimiento transgénero.

More than 1.7 million copies have been sold, thanks to its universal message of aging as a natural gift of life. Winner of the American Booksellers Book of the Year Honors Award (1991), and two Benjamin Franklin Awards: for design and content, literature (1988), and for excellence and innovation in marketing, literature (1992), When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple has been applauded for its honest and inspiring approach to the much neglected topic of aging. When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple has created a network of support and encouragement: the sixty-plus men and women whose work is included, the readers who have taken the time to share how the book has touched their lives, and the booksellers who have so graciously recommended it to buyers. Stories and poems such as Warning, Like Mother, Like Daughter, Love at Fifty, Near Places, Far Places, and Dear Paul Newman tell of the endearing moments of joy -- and passion -- to be found in the rich and varied world of midlife and beyond. This award-winning anthology has earned a word-of-mouth popularity because, as the Los Angeles Times said, the time is ripe for such a message. ; Contents: Warning / Jenny Joseph -- Sitty Victory / Vicky Salloum -- Grandma sits down / Rick Kempa -- Aunt Marie at 99 / Tom Benediktsson -- Here, take my words / Karen Brodine -- The trouble was meals / Elizabeth Bennett -- Like mother, like daughter / Susan S.
