The sexes are different because their brains are different. In "Brain Sex," geneticist Anne Moir and journalist David Jessel explore the latest research from sexual differentiation of the prenatal brain to the gender differences inherent in kindergarten playstyles, classroom abilities and adult attitudes toward love, sex and marriage.
