A mind of her own : the evolutionary psychology of women
Addresses key feminist criticisms of evolutionary theory by examining the effects of cultural innovations such as women's empowerment, labour force participation and the impact of reproductive medicine. New to this edition: new coverage of oxytocin, the evolutionary conserved peptide hormone, and the role it plays in female partner-directed aggression; an analysis of women and mental health disorders and the relationship this has with women's lower levels of aggression in relation to men; expanded sections on sexual conflict, the individual differences between women and culture, and gene-culture evolution
