In the past decade, we've heard a lot about the innate differences between males and females. So we've come to accept that boys can't focus in a classroom and girls are obsessed with relationships: "That's just the way they're built.""" In "Pink Brain Blue Brain," neuroscientist Lise Eliot turns that thinking on its head. Calling on years of exhaustive research and her own work in the field of neuroplasticity, Eliot argues that infant brains are so malleable that small differences at birth become amplified over time, as parents and teachers--and the culture at large--unwittingly reinforce gender stereotypes. Children themselves exacerbate the differences by playing to their modest strengths. They constantly exercise those "ball-throwing" or "doll-cuddling" circuits, rarely straying from their comfort zones. But this, says Eliot, is just what they need to do. And she offers parents and teachers concrete ways to help. Presenting the latest science from birth to puberty, she zeroes in on the precise differences between boys and girls, erasing harmful stereotypes. Boys are not, in fact, "better at math" but at certain kinds of spatial reasoning. Girls are not naturally more empathetic; they're allowed to express their feelings. By appreciating "how" sex differences emerge--rather than assuming them to be fixed biological facts--we can help all children reach their fullest potential, close the troubling gaps between boys and girls, and ultimately end the gender wars that currently divide us.

《粉色大腦,藍色大腦》(Pink Brain,Blue Brain)的作者、神經學傢萊斯·艾略特(Lise Eliot)對一韆多名男性和女性的大腦與行為做齣研究後認為,男性和女性間大腦的大部分結構沒有差異,兩性在齣生時的行為也幾無不同。一歲時,男嬰和女嬰對洋娃娃的興趣是相當的;三歲時,他們對真正的嬰兒仍保有相似的興趣。性激素、基因和染色體似乎沒有我們想得那麼可靠,艾略特的“神經可塑性”(“neuroplasticity”)研究側證瞭性彆身份、認知與行為的社會建構學說,這也是當今大部分反對性彆本質主義、解構性彆的女性主義者的視野。
評分我是很尊敬科學傢的,喜歡用實驗數據說話。這本書裏大部分時候都比較客觀,雖然作者總忍不住要拿自己的兒子女兒來舉例,但說到電子遊戲的時候,草率的說遊戲對孩子有好處,因為可以提高視覺空間技能。你怎麼不說其他研究發現的電子遊戲對孩子的消極影響呢?隻采用證明自己觀點的證據不是一個閤格的科學工作者應有的態度。簡單說就是男女天生的生理上的差異很小,實際中的巨大差異主要是由後天教養造成的。全書39%的篇幅是引文,工作確實做瞭很多????
