Demystifying the Female Brain

Dr Sarah McKay is a neuroscientist who knows everything worth knowing about women's brains. In The Female Brain, Dr McKay will teach us what happens to the brains of women as they cycle through the phases of life, which are unique to females by virtue of their biology and in particular their hormones. With cutting-edge science this book will weave together findings from the research lab and interviews with neuroscientists and other researchers in neuroendocrinology, brain development, brain health and ageing, to help you understand the workings of your own mind. It will include insights into brain development during infancy, childhood and the teenage years (including the onset of puberty), as well as advice on mental health and the ageing brain.
