"...is a very useful as a reference work, one a reader can use to find out what has been said on a particular topic... useful for the professors as well as the students." --ARCHIVES OF SEXUAL BEHAVIOR
"Mealey's contribution is an authoritative, well-written, and useful textbook for advanced undergraduate students in the biological and social sciences, as well as for scientistst who want to become familiar with recent research on sex differences in human sociobiology." --THE QUARTERLY REVIEW OF BIOLOGY
"...Linda Mealey's excellent textbook... the first and most comprehensive scientific book on sex differences... It should be a shame to conduct seminars or other courses in the future, and to ignore this book. For those who are familiar with evolutionary views it will be a must." --PSYCHOLOGY, EVOLUTION AND GENDER
"This highly informative, compelling and readable treatment of how males and females differ in their physical characteristics, mating strategies and parenting behaviors will forever change the way all of us think about why we are the way that we are." --PROFESSOR ROBERT HINDE, Cambridge University
"The layout is very reader-friendly, and Mealey's strong prose is exceptionally engaging, suggesting a fine sense of irony, a strong intellect, and a very broad knowledge of her subject matter. The book is a pleasure to read throughout. From the student's perspective, it is the perfect textbook... In summary, Sex Differences surpasses all earlier attempts at reaching the text book market in the field of evolutionary behavioral studies." -JOURNAL OF SEX RESEARCH
"Linda Mealey, professor of psychology at the College of St. Benedict, St. Joseph, Minnesota, has written a graduate-level textbook. The book contains three parts. The first-"Theory"-would be better labeled "Basics," since it offers not only a superb overview of core concepts of selection and evolution, but also much empirical material on nonhuman species... The amount of literature reviewed for the book is vast... Mealey's text includes numerous well-chosen cartoons that lighten up the dense and information-laden text." --POPULATION AND DEVELOPMENT REVIEW
"...Linda Mealey is right on the mark... in her well-conceived and well-executed upper-division textbook on sex differences... Overall, the book is very good. It is usefully illustrated, has a good glossary, and is written in a laudably clear, organized, and engaging style. Mealey also shows great sensitivity to the political issues raised by her subject matter and is able to treat a wide array of implications and misconceptions while maintaining an objective tone." --EVOLUTION AND HUMAN BEHAVIOR
