"Overflowing with challenging ideas and practical advice, Gurian's research offers parents and teachers a true gift, the knowledge and support needed to create dynamic learning environments for both boys and girls." (Ann F. Caron, author of Mothers to Daughters and Strong Mothers, Strong Sons)
"Useful for parents and teachers alike." (Booklist)
"Boys and Girls Learn Differently offers valuable and much-needed tools to provide boys and girls with true equal educational opportunities. The new techniques Michael Gurian presents here will transform our classrooms and the way parents teach their children in very positive ways." (John Gray, author, Children Are from Heaven and Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus)

Boys and Girls ARE different; to not recognize this is to give both less opportunities to learn best.

I appreciated that the content was factually based with proper scientific reference. The content isn't dripping with ideology either left or right, but instead earnestly seeks to understand the best methods to teach boys and girls based on what science has revealed about brain function for each.

not sure I believe it all

person who read review was very dry as was the book...was going to see him speak but otherwise wouldn't have made it thru the book
