Summary:

For centuries men and women seem to have baffled each other. Are boys really better at maths and spatial skills? Are girls better at empathy? What makes us have different strengths and weaknesses? And are these innate or are they shaped by cultural influences? Dr Alice Roberts and Dr Michael Mosley investigate the latest neuroimaging techniques and behavioural studies to determine whether men and women are wired differently. If they are, could this research be harnessed to improve the lives of both men and women?
