As Nature Made Him: The Boy Who Was Raised as a Girl by John Colapinto recounts the harrowing true story of David Reimer, a Canadian man subjected to a controversial medical experiment following a botched circumcision in infancy. Advised by Dr. John Money, a prominent sex researcher, Reimer's parents raised him as a girl named Brenda, unaware of the psychological turmoil this would entail. The book delves into the ethical implications of medical interventions, the nature versus nurture debate, and Reimer's courageous journey to reclaim his identity upon learning the truth. Colapinto's investigative narrative sheds light on the profound consequences of imposing gender identity, offering a poignant exploration of resilience and the human spirit.
