The Female Brain

The Female Brain has sold nearly a million copies between editions, and has most recently inspired a romantic comedy starring Whitney Cummings and Sofia Vergara. Why are women more verbal than men? Why do women remember details of fights that men can’t remember at all? Why do women tend to form deeper bonds with their female friends than men do with their male counterparts? These and other questions have stumped both sexes throughout the ages. So, why did it take so long for us to learn the truth about The Female Brain? Dr. Brizendine wants you to know that she didn’t get into this field for fame or fortune. She just wanted to figure out how our brains work, so she could help patients who were suffering from mood disorders and anxiety disorders (both of which are far more common in women).
