Book Reviews of Why Gender Matters: What Parents and Teachers Need to Know about the Emerging Science of Sex Differences
Book Review: Enlightening
Summary: 5 Stars
A very enlightening book - contents summary: 1) general differences 2) the brain 3)aggression 4) risk taking 5) school 6) sex 7) drugs 8) discipline 9) sexuality, tomboys, sissies 10) beyond pink and blue
The book will be good for anyone interested, particularly for doctors, psychologists, parents, welfare officers, teachers. Written by an authority on the subject. What got me to buy it was how there are some important differences in brain anatomy between males and females which determines their chosen method of describing/remembering information.
