An interesting read about human development from a neurological perspective. This one speaks particularly about the effects of hormones has on the male body from birth to old age. It help put some things in perspective, although it is rather general, since it is based on research and it necessarily flattens nuance, nevertheless, it was helpful to read. Check it out. ( )

Short, readable summary of the current thinking on the biology and function of the male brain. Turns out the effects are a lot like one might think, but the causes of those effects are interesting nonetheless. ( )

Expected scientific explanations with generalizations to illustrate, but was far more geared toward broad generalizations vaguely correlated to science. Very limited treatment of the topic and men are relegated to a narrow range of behavior. Part of the book seems to be assuaging the guilt of parents raising unpleasant people because their children are not violent or irresponsible, they are just being male.
No discussion seemed to be given regarding the variability of brains within the sexes, but I did stop reading because the book was so disappointing, and the ePub was corrupt to top it all off. ( )
