In the modern world, where women can be leaders and men can take care of a child, there remains a fundamental misunderstanding of the similarities and differences between the sexes. Recent studies show that women are often prescribed the wrong... treatment for depression or insomnia because doctors mistakenly believe that the structure of the female and male brain is identical. However, this is not the case. Swedish psychiatrist and neurobiologist Markus Heilig, in conversations about equality with his daughters, realized how little he knew about the brains of men and women. The search for answers and the desire for the best for his daughters led the author to conduct research in collaboration with leading neurobiologists. In this book, you will find unexpected facts and stories from the world of science that will make you look at our society differently.
