The book will no doubt get wide distribution since it fulfills a need in bringing together material from widely scattered sources."-Milton Diamond, American Scientist

"Nowhere else... is there such a detailed and excellent annotated bibliog- raphy followed by a summary of research on sex differences classified under headings like dependency, aggression, etc. This bibliographical material, covering 175 pages, will be useful especially to graduate students and professionals."
