?If you want to know why more people are asking 'what's your pronoun?' then you (singular or plural) should read this book.? ?Joe Moran, New York Times Book Review

Heralded as ?required reading? (Geoff Nunberg) and ?the book? (Anne Fadiman) for anyone interested in the conversation swirling around gender-neutral and nonbinary pronouns, What's Your Pronoun? is a classic in the making. Providing much-needed historical context and analysis to the debate around what we call ourselves, Dennis Baron brings new insight to a centuries-old topic and illuminates how?and why?these pronouns are sparking confusion and prompting new policies in schools, workplaces, and even statehouses. Enlightening and affirming, What's Your Pronoun? introduces a new way of thinking about language, gender, and how they intersect.
