Congratulations to Cordelia Fine, winner of the 2017 Royal Society Insight Investment Science Book Prize

Congratulations to Melbourne, Australia academic Cordelia Fine for her book Testosterone Rex: Unmaking the myths of our gendered minds. The book is a fascinating examination of the myths that tell us how differently the brains of men of women have evolved because of that hormone – testosterone.

Cordelia Fine received a cheque for £25,000 at the ceremony and the five shortlisted authors were each awarded £2,500. Testosterone Rex is Fine’s third book, following the critically acclaimed Delusions of Gender and A Mind of Its Own. Click here for more information about the prize.
