Delusions of Gender

How Our Minds, Society, and Neurosexism Create Difference

18 minCordelia Fine

What's it about

Ever wonder if the differences between men's and women's brains are as real as we're told? Get ready to dismantle the myths of "neurosexism" and discover how society, not biology, shapes our minds and abilities, limiting your true potential. You'll explore the flimsy science behind claims of hardwired gender differences and see how stereotypes actually change our brain's performance. Learn how culture creates the very gender gaps it claims are natural, and gain the tools to challenge these limiting beliefs in your own life.

Meet the author

Cordelia Fine is a Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Melbourne and was awarded the prestigious Royal Society Science Book Prize. With a background in both experimental psychology and criminology, her unique interdisciplinary lens allows her to critically deconstruct the flawed science often used to justify gender stereotypes. This expertise grew from a desire to challenge the pervasive, unscientific claims about innate brain differences, leading her to expose the powerful influence of "neurosexism" on our lives.
