Psychology of Gender Through the Lens of Culture
This unique collection brings a rarely-seen indigenous and global perspective to the study of gender and psychology.

Included, too, are examples of culturally appropriate interventions to address disparities, and data on the extent to which the...
Engaging Undergraduates in Publishable Research: Best Practices

It showcases contri...

STEVEN PINKER, bestselling author of The Blank Slate 'There are whole books written about the idea that behavioural sex differences are a societal construct and how a male hormone we know influences animal behaviour somehow doesn't influence us. Hooven's book is a riposte to that silliness - and also a defence of a hormone that isn't just about aggression.' TOM WHIPPLE, THE TIMES, BEST SCIENCE BOOKS OF 2021 'Fascinating, vital, unputdownable.' JULIE BINDEL 'The definitiv...
