Beschreibung

Testosterone lies at the heart of maleness, and is involved in aggression, competitiveness, and risk-taking -- all essential in our evolution. Joe Herbert describes the fascinating insights revealed by modern research into this primeval power that shaped our history and lurks below the veneer of our civilized modern world.
