What Other Professionals Are Saying
The Gurian Institute’s work is research- and science-driven, with a special focus on direct usefulness to professionals and parents. Here are some of the things scientists and medical professionals are saying about our work. From the beginning of time, parents and sensitive teachers have observed differences in the behavior, learning styles, and focused interests of girls and boys. Defying the political correctness that is today’s common wisdom, Gurian and the contributing authors draw on emerging neuro-scientific data to justify these perceptions. While never allowing us to lose sight of the reality of individual differences, they suggest creative ways to modify the learning environment to encourage a broader spectrum of achievement in both gender groups. — Edward Zigler, Ph.D., Sterling Professor of Psychology, Yale University; one of the original planners of the national Head Start program I found THE MINDS OF BOYS enlightening not only as a neuroscientist but also as the mother of a young boy. It has absolutely changed the way that I think about boys (and men) and the ways in which they express their enthusiasm for life. — Tracey J. Shors, Ph.D. Department of Psychology; Center for Collaborative Neuroscience, Rutgers University I found the THE WONDER OF GIRLS a wonderful addition to the literature already available on raising girls. What I liked best was its constant correlation of developing biology in women to their psychological struggles, giving the authenticity that is sorely needed. I heartily endorse this new balanced way to understand how wonderful the capacities of girls and women are, and so vital to the nurturing of their infants, families and society. Bravo! — Deborah Sichel, M.D., author of Women’s Moods: What Every Woman Must Know About Hormones, the Brain, and Emotional Health — Daniel Amen, MD, Founder of the Amen Clinics, University of California-Irvine; Author of Making A Good Brain Great NURTURE THE NATURE is beautifully written guide to raising children.

Parents will close the book truly understanding why boys and girls are different in so many ways, and how to nurture the nature of their son.” — Fay E. Brown, Ph.D. Director of Child and Adolescent Development School Development Program, Yale University IT’S A BABY BOY is a very readable, model-specific manual that provides gems of research and insight from experienced parents and medical professionals.

Practical and scientific. A must read for every parent who wants to raise a spiritual child. — Dharma Singh Khalsa, M.D., author of Meditation As Medicine More Critical Acclaim “School counselors in the Guilford County and the Alamance-Burlington County School districts, along with members from the WISE Guys Program, were recently trained by Michael Gurian and the training was outstanding. School counselors were educated on the THE MINDS OF BOYS, which examined gender differences, brain development and its effects on academic achievement and personal/social development. The session enhanced the ability of school counselors to integrate academics into their counseling curriculum and provided research-based strategies for males regarding academic achievement and personal/social competency. Participants described Mr. Gurian’s professional development as superb, outstanding, eye opening, an excellent blend of research and applications, reignited my passion for counseling and extremely relevant.” School counselor Kelly Ashley stated, “This was the BEST workshop I’ve had in my entire 25 years as a counselor. It was science-based, data driven and applicable for my very next session with students”. Fredricca Stokes, Supervisor of High School Counseling, added “This work was needed and critical to addressing the needs of students and their path to life after high school”. — Dr. Karen Meadows, Guilford County School, Supervisor of K-8 Counseling “On behalf of the Independent Educational Consultants Association, I would like to thank you for joining us as our keynote speaker at our Fall Conference in Scottsdale. We enjoyed your take–and the research that backs it up–on how a boy’s brain develops, how girls’ and boys’ brains are stimulated so differently, and so much more. These topics are extremely relevant to our audience; as one participant summer up, “Michael Gurian was AMAZING. Insightful and informative.” Thank you for taking the time to meet with attendees after your presentations and making it an unforgettable experience.” –Mark Sklarow, Chief Executive Officer, Independent Educational Consultants Association “When Sacred Heart School started their journey into Single Gender Education in a co-educational building, we needed a foundational resource that would apply to both an all Girls class and an all Boys class. Michael Gurian’s book “Successful Single-Sex Classes” was the perfect place for us to start. Once we learned about brain research in relation to how boys and girls learn differently, we really started to see a change in pedagogy with our teachers. They just could not unknow what they learned and treated their students in the same manner. We invited Michael to come and help us grow in our knowledge and skills in year 3 of the program. He was so open to creating the most appropriate workshop to meet our teachers needs that we felt like he was more a member of the staff by the time the session was done. He toured each classroom and spent time with each individual teacher, offering suggestions and providing great positive support to them. The teachers felt very comfortable talking with Michael about any and all Single Gender issues they were experiencing. After the individual sessions, Michael came and spoke to questions that we, as a staff, had created and sent to him earlier. The discussions that followed were very valuable and the teachers wished we could have spent more time with him. Michael then presented to a group of teachers, administrators, parents, trustees and senior administrators. His presentation “How Boys and Girls Learn Differently’ was highly engaging, very entertaining and incredibly informative. He was able to get members of our school community, at all levels, to see something new in their students, their child and even their spouse. The response to his presentation was very positive and the group would have listened to him for many more hours. Michael Gurian, his books and his personal relationship with us, has helped us create an unique school environment by providing us with factual information that we could rely on and visiting us in person to provide critical, positive feedback on what was happening at our school. We hope this relationship will continue into the future.” — Leanne Timko, Principal Sacred Heart School (K – 8) Calgary, Alberta, Canada “We greatly enjoyed the insight and observations Michael Gurian shared with us about raising, relating to, inspiring, and educating boys and girls. His dynamic talk left us with much to discuss — just what a speaker ought to inspire!” — Christie Henry, President, University of Chicago Laboratory Schools Parent Association “Michael was a pleasure to have in our school community! We had representatives from thirty schools and school districts at his talks. Both the parents and teachers were inspired to learn more after hearing his presentation. He has a knack for making information on the minds of boys and girls both interesting and entertaining by keeping his audience laughing out loud.” –Meredith Bloomberg, Chairperson of the Parent Engagement Network and Graland Parents Association, Graland Country Day School, Denver, Colorado — Yezdi Pavri, Managing Partner, Deloitte & Touche “LEADERSHIP AND THE SEXES is an exciting new book by gender team Michael Gurian and Barbara Annis. It offers critical insight into the minefield of gender relationships in the workplace, and is a tool I have been missing. Corporate America needs the knowledge this new book gives us. I can’t wait to start implementing the authors’ ideas.
— Pernille Lopez, President of IKEA North America “Much of what we have learned thus far about marketing to and leading men and women is based on observing cultural influences. LEADERSHIP AND THE SEXES brings a scientific basis that simply takes everyone’s understanding to a whole new level. The opportunity this understanding brings to be more effective is a competitive advantage both in and outside our company.”
— Jim Weber, President and CEO, Brooks Sports “LEADERSHIP AND THE SEXES is an important work and Michael Gurian and Barbara Annis are perfect to write it. Filled with practical, accessible information, this is a book that all of us need to read, whether we deal with men and women at work or leading in our communities or families.”

Boys learn differently from girls. Michael Gurian not only knows it and can prove it, but has ideas about how to help boys succeed. His THE MINDS OF BOYS, written with Kathy Stevens, shows how to help boys in the classroom and at home.” — Nancy Churnin, Dallas Morning News “THE MINDS OF BOYS…a call for a reassessment of how we educate our sons (that) is long overdue.” — Washington Post Book World “The Minds of Boys provides a valuable service not only to parents and teachers but also policy makers. Boys today are languishing academically. Gurian and Stevens provide important analysis and practical solutions.” — Chistina Hoff Sommers, Author of THE WAR AGAINST BOYS “The Mind of Boys is an excellent read. I found it enlightening not only as a neuroscientist but also as the mother of a young boy.

I just completed your book THE MINDS OF BOYS, and have found it very interesting and applicable to what we are facing in our district. I have asked our Superintendent to purchase your book for every board member and member of his senior leadership team. I hope that in reading the book, our school leaders will feel as I do that we need to implement many of the strategies you recommend. Thanks for writing such a good book and inspiring me to push this issue to the forefront in our district.” — Buddy Collins, Esq., Winston-Salem Board of Education
“Michael Gurian had the courage to talk about boys before it was popular. His new book, THE MINDS OF BOYS, written with educator Kathy Stevens, takes this work further. It articulates the issues from a brain-based approach, with supporting research. It then gives very practical examples for interventions. I highly recommend this book to anyone who works with boys professionally or personally. I found the book to be extraordinarily helpful. — Ruby Payne, Author of A FRAMEWORK FOR UNDERSTANDING POVERTY “The Minds of Boys is a wonderfully practical and enjoyable book to read. I thoroughly enjoyed its insights, data and practical strategies. It will help empower parents to demand social justice for boys in school.” — Stephen J. Bavolek, Ph.D., Founder, The Nurturing Parenting Program “In The Minds of Boys, Michael Gurian and Kathy Stevens provide a very readable description of the current academic dilemma affecting a large number of boys.” — Sandra F. Witelson
Albert Einstein/Irving Zucker Chair in Neuroscience McMaster University “THE MINDS OF BOYS is a compassionate and well-considered exploration of the educational crisis many of our boys face. It provides a giant leap in our empathy for what it means to be a boy in our culture. For parents and teachers especially, this book helps them provide boys support through their developmental stages. I regret that I did not have this book in hand while raising my son.” — Pat Crum, Director/Co-Founder of the Family Nurturing Center of Michigan “THE MINDS OF BOYS is a must read for educators from preschool through young adulthood, and any parent or grandparent who is raising a boy.

Chair of the Education Committee I am a huge fan of your books – have read so many of them particularly related to raising boys. You completely changed my perspective and gave me insights than i never would have had as a woman and I am truly grateful for that. Your work is important and there is nobody else out there who approaches parenting/psychology from your unique perspective. Thank you.

“Gurian’s book {WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING?} explores the fascinating science of the difference in male and female brains and how differences dictate behavior. His hope is that, by illuminating the construction of each gender’s amygdala, cingulate gyrus, hippocampus, et al., not to mention the action of our hormones, we can better negotiate the battle of the sexes.” — Lily Burana, The Washington Post “There is now scientific proof (about men) in a new book titled WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING?, which I cannot recommend highly enough.” — Dave Barry, Columnist “WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING? is filled with illuminating specific examples.” — Seattle Post Intelligencer “WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING? explains how the brain, in conjunction with psychological and sociological factors, drives a man’s behavior. Gurian’s research is both fascinating and eye opening.” — Cleveland Plain Dealer “While plenty of books offer to help us understand the opposite sex from a psychological perspective, this one tackles the topic from a neurological one. Family therapist Gurian (The Wonder of Boys) takes readers on a voyage through the male brain, offering “nature-based” explanations-that is, well-established biological tenets-for how men think and act differently from women (e.g., why they love to tinker with gadgets and why they remember fewer details about an event). In the process, readers discover almost as much about women and how their brains function…(WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING?) is recommended for all public libraries.” — The Library Journal “Like a guide through a secret forest, WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING? leads the nonscientist through the complex world of brain science and relates it to some of the most frustrating sources of conflict between men and women in relationships.” — Reuters News Service
“In WHAT COULD HE BE THINKING?…Michael Gurian has completed some incredible and useful research. Gurian has answered questions of vital importance.” — Chicago Tribune
“Best known for several earlier books, including “The Wonder of Boys” and “The Wonder of Girls” — in which he explored how biological differences between the male and female brains influence childhood behavior — Michael Gurian has turned his attention to grown-ups, saying that understanding the inner workings of the male mind can help couples live in harmony.” — The Los Angeles Times “Finally! Figure out your husband! Men are such a puzzle. Are they serious when they say, “Don’t worry so much, the kids are fine?” Actually, yes, says Michael Gurian, a noted author and therapist, in his new book, What Could He Be Thinking? (St. Martins Press). Using research on male and female brains, he explains some perplexing behavior, like why men can remember last year’s baseball stats but not yesterday’s conversation, and more.” — Parenting Magazine, September 2003 “Just when I thought a man’s way of thinking could never be fully understood, Michael Gurian comes to the rescue and offers exciting, new insights into the minds of the men we love. Whether you are contemplating marriage, are already married, or just interested in figuring out men, What Could He Be Thinking? is the book for you.” — Ann F. Caron, Ed.D., author of “Strong Mothers, Strong Sons” “What Could He Be Thinking? is an insightful, often funny, and easy to read book. It offers many insights into the male mind, which can be very helpful to women and men alike.” — Daniel Amen, M.D., author of “Change Your Brain, Change Your Life” “What Could He Be Thinking? is a well-written, down-to-earth guide to men in an era of concern for women, and a guide to biology in an era focused on psychology. Gurian gives us science’s bottom line about how understanding the male brain can create better marriages and parenting. If you have a father, son or husband you want to love more fully, start with What Could He Be Thinking?” — Warren Farrell, Ph.D., author of “Why Men Are The Way They Are and Women Can’t Hear What Men Don’t Say” “The Miracle: A Visionary Novel” – Psychotherapist Gurian, the bestselling author of numerous parenting and psychology books (The Wonder of Girls; The Soul of the Child), has written a riveting supernatural suspense novel that tracks the efforts of a psychic to find a serial killer in Spokane, Washington. The novel begins when a clairvoyant, cancer-stricken boy is run down by a car. At the accident scene where he dies, an other-worldly light hovers over his body and suffuses the neighborhood. Soon afterward, his nurse, Beth Carey, has visions of children being murdered. Her hallucinations turn out to be premonitions; a serial murderer who calls himself the Light Killer begins to terrorize Spokane, killing several children and sending letters to the local paper explaining his garbled philosophy (“The Creator inhales darkness and exhales light. This is how I feel when I hold the [dying] child in my arms, that I can breathe again, breathe Light again”). Beth, suspecting that the killer was influenced by the same mysterious light that gave her psychic powers, searches for him, hoping to forge a connection with this doppelganger and keep him from killing again. Gurian infuses the story with his own ideas about the divine and the dawning of a new kind of human being with spiritual intuition….Even skeptics will find the murder mystery gripping. Gurian delicately ups the tension with each successive murder, and the climax is stunning.” — Publishers Weekly, May 5, 2003
“THE SOUL OF THE CHILD is an absolutely brilliant and lovely book. Practical and scientific. A must read for every parent who wants to raise a spiritual child.” — Dharma Singh Khalsa, M.D., author of “Meditation As Medicine” “This is a tremendous work! A unique bridge between science and religion, it is both visionary and good common sense. Its inspiring stories, beautiful prose, and touch of genius will change the way we look at children, and ourselves, forever. Gurian’s talents as a child advocate, parenting expert and social philosopher have all combined here into what I feel is one of the most important books of the new millennium.” — Rev. William Harper Houff, Ph.D., Author of INFINITY IN YOUR HAND “Bravo to Michael Gurian for reminding us of the sacredness of our work as parents and the vivid lives of our children’s souls. If you have any doubt about the reality of the soul, read THE SOUL OF THE CHILD.” — Mimi Doe, Author of “10 Principles For Spiritual Parenting” “In THE WONDER OF GIRLS, therapist Gurian probes the unique aspects of girls’ emotional, social and physical development in a follow-up to his bestselling THE WONDER OF BOYS. He urges parents to use a new model in raising girls (he calls it “Womanism”) in which girls establish a three-family system (the nuclear family, the extended family and institutions such as church and school) that will meet their need for intimate relationships. Gurian’s arguments (will ) stir controversy and inspire thought.” — Publisher’s Weekly, December 2001
“Gurian’s attention to the physiology of how girls develop is tapping into a growing field among researchers…The Wonder of Girls has won universal praise for Gurian’s focus on the importance of maintaining personal connections with girls.” — Chicago Sun Times “I was grateful to get to the advice section of The Wonder of Girls, which categorizes girls by age…wonderfully useful advice….Gurian is at his best when it comes to the nuts and bolts of rearing a daughter.” — The Los Angeles Times “In THE WONDER OF GIRLS, Michael Gurian has written an eminently sensible book.” — The Daily Telegraph (London) “(THE WONDER OF GIRLS) is explosive, bound to be controversial, a powder keg…Gurian raises interesting questions.” — USA TODAY “THE WONDER OF GIRLS is…an excellent choice.” — Library Journal “Michael Gurian shares intriguing insights in THE WONDER OF GIRLS.” — Seattle Times “Finally, a sensitive and scientifically knowledgeable writer has given us a book on girls. Gurian’s engrossing book, THE WONDER OF GIRLS, is important not only for parents, but for anyone who cares for, educates, or makes policy affecting the lives of girls and women.” — Christina Hoff Sommers, author of “Who Stole Feminism?” “In THE WONDER OF GIRLS, Michael Gurian has given us a gift, an exciting book that parents of daughters will consult over and over again. Gurian leads us in a new direction as he challenges parents to understand and value our daughters’ desire for attachment. Women will recognize themselves as well as their daughters in this thought-provoking book. Bravo, Michael!” — Ann F. Caron, author of “Don’t Stop Loving Me” “I found the THE WONDER OF GIRLS a wonderful addition to the literature already available on raising girls. What I liked best was its constant correlation of developing biology in women to their psychological struggles, giving the authenticity that is sorely needed. Not only that, it gives parents and professionals alike a new framework to understand girls’ development from a multi-perspective. I also especially liked how it provided concrete ways that fathers and mothers could understand their daughters’ progress through different stages, and to understand that their lives are a progression along with brain development capacities. I heartily endorse this new balanced way to understand how wonderful the capacities of girls and women are, and so vital to the nurturing of their infants, families and society.

“The insights and innovations in BOYS AND GIRLS LEARN DIFFERENTLY! have been applied in our classrooms with phenomenal success, leading to better academic performance and better behavior.” — Dan Colgan, Ph.D., superintendent of schools, St. Joseph, Missouri “Filled with stories and practical advice for parents and teachers of adolescent boys…I recommend “A Fine Young Man” to those who want to raise fine young men.” — Mary Pipher, author of REVIVING OPHELIA
“THE WONDER OF BOYS is a provocative book that electrifies the debate over how this nation raises sons.” — USA TODAY “THE WONDER OF BOYS will help future generations open the lines of communication between men and women by giving us what we need to raise strong, responsible and sensitive men.” — John Gray, author of MEN ARE FROM MARS, WOMEN ARE FROM VENUS. “What Mary Pipher has done to raise our national consciousness in her book REVIVING OPHELIA, Michael Gurian has done in THE WONDER OF BOYS.” — Betty B. Youngs, author of HOW TO DEVELOP SELF ESTEEM IN YOUR CHILD “Michael Gurian’s information is critical, and presented with both seriousness and humor. He has a way of helping the audience not only hear and understand, but also feel comfortable to disagree!” — Lani Wilkeson, Court Appointed Special Advocates “Michael Gurian is a fascinating, captivating speaker who clearly knows his material. I could listen to him for hours!” — Wayne Pawlowski, Director of Training,
