The Female Brain By Louann Brizendine, MD Book

This profound scientific understanding of the nature & experience of the female brain continues to guide women as they pass through life stages, to help men better understand the girls & women in their lives & to illuminate the delicate emotional machinery of a love relationship. Why are women more verbal than men? Why do women remember details of fights that men can’t remember? Why do women tend to form deeper bonds with their friends than men do with theirs? These & other questions have stumped both sexes throughout the ages. Pioneering neuropsychiatrist Louann Brizendine, M.D., brings together the latest findings to show how the unique structure of the female brain determines how women think, what they value, how they communicate & who they love. While doing research as a medical student at Yale & then as a resident & faculty member at Harvard, Louann discovered that almost all clinical data in existence on neurology, psychology & neurobiology focused exclusively on males. In response to overwhelming need for info on the female mind, Brizendine established the first clinic in the country to study & treat women’s brain function. In The Female Brain, all her findings & the latest info from the scientific community is in a highly accessible book that educates women about their unique brain/body/behavior. The result: women will come away from this book knowing that they have a lean, mean, communicating machine. Men will develop a serious case of brain envy.
