  • I am a girl whose mushy head is "hardwired" for girly things.
  • neuroscience is actually a mass of disciplines: neurology, physiology, psychology, molecular biology and genetics, all of them ramped up by new ways of imaging the brain
  • The interaction between the hemispheres is what counts, but this is less marketable stuff.
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • All of them confirm what we already know, not what we could know.
  • brain scans are still blunt intruments
  • very clever doctors were more than happy to talk about what they did not know about the brain.
  • quasi-religious status
  • "neurosexism"
  • The truth is our brains are much more similar than they are different. That's not a headline you will ever read, is it? "Men and women: much the same!"
