This book was incredibly informative and thought provoking. As someone drawn to animal behavior, Chapters 1-4 were full of intriguing facts, but I found Chapters 5-8 particularly inspiring and informative. I loved the message that "if you assume a bimodal model, you ignore all of the points in between" because it highlights a lot of the issues both with past research and with societal bias today. As it is a more scientific read, there are lot of examples/evidence which can make it seem slightly dense if that isn't what you're looking for, but all of his claims and theories are explained very clearly, and he tied together biology, sociology, psychology, and history together seamlessly, making this book accessible to just about anyone.
