New book by Professor Cordelia Fine

Testosterone Rex Book Cover

Honorary staff member Professor Cordelia Fine has just published 'Testosterone Rex: Unmaking the myths of our gendered minds'. This powerful follow-up to 'Delusions of gender' (2010) challenges the view that biological sex is a fundamental force in human development and the idea that testosterone is the essence of masculinity.

Testosterone Rext is attracting very positive reviews, including this one from the New York Times.
