Sex/Gender presents a relatively new way to think about how biological
difference can be produced over time in response to different
environmental and social experiences.
This book gives a clearly written explanation of the biological and
cultural underpinnings of gender. Anne Fausto-Sterling provides an
introduction to the biochemistry, neurobiology, and social construction
of gender with expertise and humor in a style accessible to a wide
variety of readers. In addition to the basics, Sex/Gender ponders the
moral, ethical, social and political side to this inescapable subject.
