Exploring the legal category of 'monster,' this book delves into its theoretical and historical dimensions to illuminate current societal anxieties regarding transsexuals, conjoined twins, and transgenic humans. By examining how these identities challenge conventional norms, it provides a critical analysis of the intersection between law, identity, and societal fears.
