The book T: The Story of Testosterone by Carole Hooven provides an insightful exploration of the hormone's impact on human biology, behavior, and development, including the controversial topic of its relationship to gender identity. The author discusses the historical research on testosterone in animals and humans, fetal development, aggression, sexual behavior, and gender reassignment therapy. The book combines objective scientific information with anecdotes, interviews, and personal experiences to make the subject matter accessible and engaging. The book also aims to dispel fears about holding people accountable for their actions if those actions have a biological component.
