I am interested in for example reviews, causality, comorbidity and social/psychological factors. Anything to get some insight in state of the art research and important literature!
The Transgender Studies Reader, edited by Stryker and Whittle, is only a few years old and does a fantastic job of detailing historical and contemporary developments in the field.

A great book is also Trans Bodies Trans Selves, by Erickson-Schroth!
