This is an important and relevant book and so I feel it deserves 5 stars. It narrates Alex Bertie's transition from female to male and all that comes along: understanding his feelings, coming to terms with his sexuality and gender identity, coming out to his family and starting medical procedures like hormone treatment and top surgery. This was very informative, both to trans people and people from all the ends of the gender spectrum. His Youtube videos are extremely important and clear and this book focuses on specific details of Alex's transition. I feel more informed and recommend TransMission to everyone.

Nice memoir from a young man in the UK following his life through transition. Full of good advice and anecdotes.
