The New Science of Sex and Gender

By: Scientific American

Narrated by: Suzie Althens

Vital research is starting to challenge long-standing assumptions about gender identity and biological sex, such as work that indicates the brain is a “mosaic” of traits rather than a “male” and “female” brain. Growing knowledge of the genetic complexities of sexual determination is (slowly) changing the way the medical community treats intersex individuals, and in this audiobook, The New Science of Sex and Gender, we not only examine the latest studies in biology, medicine, and psychology but also, more importantly, their bearing on healthcare, identity, and access.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

New research

Interesting overview of relatively recent research, though not a lot of new information available or provided.

interesting, but dry. prefer a narrative story

I would have preferred to add more narrative story. I listen to an audiobook called if I were your girl and I enjoyed that more.
