The book tries to answer some of the most universal questions about men and women and uncover the mystery behind what makes them so different from each other. Summary Of The Book Ever wondered why women talk more than men? Or why men generally prefer to do one thing at a time? Or why women excel at one thing while men at another? Allan and Barbara Pease have all the answers on why men and women are so different and what can be done about it. The writer couple travelled far and wide, met a lot of different people, and arrived at some startling conclusions about the two sexes. In this book, they have put down the findings of their research that deal with some of the most fundamental questions people discuss about men and women. The book takes a look at gender roles from the pre-historic period, when man was a hunter and woman the nest-keeper, and shows how these roles developed over time and manifested in present day situations. It cites a number of interesting sociological and psychological studies in support of the views presented. In essence, the book tries to highlight some inherent, biological differences in men and women that might be impossible to bridge regardless of any amount of socio-political propaganda about gender equality.
