Pink Brain, Blue Brain

How Small Differences Grow into Troublesome Gaps - And What We Can Do About It

L
Lise Eliot

**Groundbreaking research opens a new chapter in the Nature vs. Nurture debate

The 2010 smash hit arrives in mass-market paperback!**

Turning conventional thinking about gender differences on its head, Lise Eliot issues a call to close the troubling gaps between boys and girls and help all children reach their fullest potential.
Drawing on years of exhaustive research and her own work in the field of neuroplasticity, Eliot argues that infant brains are so malleable that small differences at birth become amplified over time as parents, teachers, and the culture at large unwittingly reinforce gender stereotypes.
Indicating points of intervention where social pressures can be minimised, she offers concrete solutions for helping everyone grow into wellrounded individuals.
