In The XX Brain , Lisa Mosconi reveals the intricate workings of the female brain and why women are becoming more vulnerable to neurological diseases than men. She explains how understanding female hormones is the key to helping women resolve many of their health issues and live long, healthy lives well past menopause.
When it comes to aging, society puts more pressure on women than men. Yet even as we become obsessed with staying youthful, there seems to a lack of serious conversation regarding brain health in women. Scientific research has been dominated by men, and the common assumption has been that whatever works for men will work for women. New research shows that this not the case. The female brain is unique in the way it processes information and responds to the environment. The XX Brain is Lisa Mosconi’s attempt to demystify the female brain and explain what women need to do to prevent neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s and dementia.

This analysis was useful and to the point. Health advise is generated by studies on men, ignoring women. Lisa Mosconi's book (The XX Brain) is an important look at the specific needs of a woman's brain and how to take steps to maintain health.
