The gendered brain : the new neuroscience that shatters the myth of the female brain

by Gina Rippon

This study of cognitive neuroscience challenges the binary concept of male and female brains. It examines how gender stereotypes and societal expectations shape neural development, behaviour, and self-identity, promoting an individualised view of the human brain.
