The Little Book of LGBT Terms
Harriet Dyer
Language is one of the key paths to awareness, acceptance and empowerment but this book admits that it can be confusing. The book sets itself up as a pocket-sized easy-to-use dictionary introducing some of the most essential terminology surrounding gender, sexuality and LGBTQIA+ identity. Presented in simple to understand ways, with examples of usage and (all important) context, it shows how and why this language is developing and used across the word. If you have questions about yourself or about the terminology, or interested in learning more, this compact, fun and charming guide will help you navigate the world of infinite diversity with knowledge and kindness.
