The Real Difference Between Men & Women |
|
At last there is an answer to the exasperated lament, "Why can't a woman be more like a man?"
The answer to each of these questions could shatter our modern beliefs about sexual equality, development and behavior. From bedroom to boardroom, from schoolroom to workplace, this radical reappraisal of the relationship between the sexes claims that men and woman are not the same in skills, aptitude or behavior. The sexes are different because their brains are different. In Brain Sex geneticist Anne Moir and journalist David Jessel take you on an extraordinary journey from the sexual differentiation of the prenatal brain to the gender differences inherent in kindergarten playstyles, classroom abilities and adult attitudes toward love, sex and marriage. A startling new perspective on one of the great puzzles of human nature this provocative work is fascinating reading for anyone who lives with, works with or is just curious about the opposite sex. |
