From what I read of it--and it wasn't all 700 pages--I really enjoyed this and wish I had had more time to dedicate to a close read of it along with taking notes. Straub addresses sex and race disparities in a way that is not typical of your average white male in the realm of psychology, which was refreshing. I appreciated that he and his colleagues also explained more intricate biomedical concepts accessibly.

Meh, pretty dry, but I liked the course that went along with this book.

This book was very well written for the subject matter. Straub did a good job of progressively giving the information to clearly understand it.
