Makes a great graduation present for everyone from pre-med students to those graduating residency. Thanks!

My book is set up like a parody of board exam questions, and it’s suitable for aspiring physicians, retiring physicians, practicing physicians, medical students, residents, medical spouses, educators, policy-makers and even patients who want to understand their doctors a little better.  And if they want to buy one for their physicians, I won’t mind a bit!

People love reading about sex. And people really love reading about how everything can be explained by sex or some gender differences. If it’s something about rats, that’s fine… You can gloss over the fact that it’s only been proven in rat studies by simply leaving that to the footnotes or references. Simplicity – You need to get to the point. Nobody’s buying the book to read dry academic studies. So authors make sure they season their book with lots of little anecdotes about small, unpublished classroom studies, or something overheard at a dinner party. People like stories because they’re simple and engaging. Stories have little scientific value, but they will “prove” the points nonetheless, at lea...
