This important book examines how non-binary people discover, adopt, and negotiate language in a variety of social settings. It considers how language, in the form of gender-neutral pronouns, names, and labels, is a central aspect of identity for many and has been a subject of much debate recently.

'This book is a vital addition to the burgeoning research literature on non-binary experience, and to gender studies more broadly. It presents the first study of its kind to examine the language that non-binary people use to make sense of their experience. Beautifully written, accessible, and engaging, this book invites the reader into exciting and innovative theories and methods, as well as some truly fascinating findings.'

'This important text persuasively argues for scholarship to understand how trans and non-binary linguistics centres practices and subjectivities, important to any understanding of gender. They cast new light on gender and the power of words, the ephemeral nature of categories, and their significance to embodiment.'
