Neurotransmitters are psychological snake oil. A confidence game pop-psychologists play with their audience. There is frankly no convincing story of human behaviour made more comprehensible by talking about dopamine.

This book is basically, “men are terribly emotionally fragile, and they can make small steps to be better, but women need to just <em>stop bothering them with all their pedantry</em> and just let them be who they are.”

I guarantee, no matter how sexy traditional gender roles are to you, that you do _not_ want to be like Gray's 'men'.

Not only is there is absolutely no difference between men and women in how they complain or offer criticism, but the 'men' Gray describe could be used as textbook example of people with social anxiety.

Neurons link into ‘pathways’ that map perceptions to actions. But, neural pathways don’t just link one thing to one other thing—each pathway is involved at many things at once. So to change one, you have to also contend with all the rest.
