Men and Women explores every aspect of the apparent differences between the sexes - whether in intellect, emotion, relationships, sexuality, physique - and come up with some surprising answers. Where real differences exist, are they imposed by biological constraints or can they be explained simply by culturally imposed stereotypes and the different ways in which children are treated? And where there are no real differences, why is it that men continue to hold most of the positions of power in public life? A leading psychologist, John Nicholson has based all his conclusions on scientific research and survey material. For this new edition he provides up-to-date figures to show that there has been progress towards equality of opportunities in the workplace; he also argues that recent evidence strengthens biological explanations of the differences between the sexes.
