I really liked Body Problems: What Intersex Priest Sally Gross Teaches Us About Embodiment, Justice, and Belonging by M. Wolff. I read it for the first time in early September, and I left a short review on StoryGraph at the time in part to record my immediate thoughts and in part because I thought that leaving a review might help other people to find the book. It was a sacrifice to the almighty algorithm. The purpose of this review is different. I assume some people who read this review will not have heard of this book before, but others will have heard of the book and are wondering whether or not they should read it, or if it is relevant to their field of interest. So I will do my best to summarise what this book is about and what I think makes it worthwhile.
In her 2020 book Hatred: Understanding our Most Dangerous Emotion, Berit Brogaard presents a complex but not comprehensive analysis of the emotion of hatred.
