All study of our evolution starts with one simple truth: human beings take an extraordinarily long time to grow up. What does this extended period of dependency have to do with human brain growth and...

There is a human genetic fluke that is surprisingly common, due to a change in a key pair of chromosomes.

It is called maleness.
