    Louann Brizendine , M.D, neuropsychiatrist, educator, writer, researcher, is professor of clinical psychiatry at UCSF/LPPI. She is thedirector of the Women's and Teen's Mood and Hormone Clinic and author of the book: The Female Brain , Morgan Road/Random House, 2006.

    “Some may say that the science I describe is at odds with feminism and there was a time I thought that might be the case. However experience shows us that men and women are capable of excelling in all areas whether intellectual, physical or artistic. Brain differences do identify different strengths for women and men and that's what makes it important to have both women and men in all professions. It is my hope that delineating these differences will enable women and men to take advantage of their strengths and understand their differences.”
