Beyond Versus
Why the “nature versus nurture” debate persists despite widespread recognition that human traits arise from the interaction of nature and nurture. If everyone now agrees that human traits arise not from nature or nurture but from the interaction of nature and nurture, why does the “nature versus nurture” debate persist? In Beyond Versus, James Tabery argues that the persistence stems from a century-long struggle to understand the interaction of nature and nurture—a struggle to define what the interaction of nature and nurture is, how it should be investigated, and what counts as evidence for it. Tabery examines past episodes in the nature versus nurture debates, offers a contempora...
Transition to Adulthood in Turner Syndrome
Turner syndrome (TS) occurs in approximately 1:2000 – 1:2500 live-born female infants. The diagnosis is based on a total or partial absence of an X chromosome. Besides the characteristic phenotype, TS is associated with multiple conditions. Leading symptoms in this syndrome are short stature and ovarian dysgenesis leading to infertility in most cases. Particular attention should be paid to congenital heart defects, which affect approximately 20–50% of girls and women with TS and are directly related to an increased mortality in this patient group. Additionally, there is an increased risk of autoimmune diseases, such as autoimmune thyroiditis and coeliac disease. The other disturbances are kidneys abnormalities, recurrent otitis leading to conductive hearing loss, vision problems, and mental health issues.
Cripping Intersex
Intersex and/as/is/with disability. The connections between intersex and disability deserve nuanced attention if we are to strengthen intersex human rights claims and understand the experiences of intersex people living with the disabling consequences of medical intervention. Cripping Intersex explores three key themes: the medical management of people with intersex characteristics; the mainstream fascination with sport sex-testing policies; and the eugenic implications of preimplantation genetic diagnosis. This necessary work offers radical new understandings of intersex-with-disability by investigating how intersex and interphobia intersect with disability and ableism, and pushes analyses of intersex experience further than feminist or queer theory can do alone.

Optimizing Health Care for Turner Patients in the 21st Century
This volume publishes the proceedings of the 5th International Turner Symposium. It covers how health care for Turner Syndrome patients can be optimally managed from infancy to adulthood. New scientific data on molecular genetics of Turner syndrome and practical approaches to the management of cardiac problems were shared to 350 participants of the 2-day conference. Scientific advances in assisted reproductive techniques were also discussed in detail. This book is indeed a necessary tool in understanding Turner syndrome for both health care professionals and patients. Many recommendations for diagnosis and treatment serve as a guideline for the comprehensive care of women with Turner syndrome.
