A Good Buffet: Review of Different: Gender Through the Eyes of a Primatologist. 2022. By Frans de Waal, New York, NY: WW Norton & Company.

"Different: Gender Through the Eyes of a Primatologist" by Frans de Waal is a book that explores human gender differences and similarities through the lens of a primatologist. The book combines storytelling and data analysis to compare human gendered behavior with that of other primates, particularly bonobos and chimpanzees, in order to determine which gendered behaviors have biological roots. De Waal argues for gender equity based on a realistic understanding of women and men, rather than assuming they are identical. While the book lacks a cohesive argument and may be confusing for some readers, it offers valuable insights into the complexity of gender and provides engaging stories and examples.
