I definitely agree with your summary of the chapter. Boys and girls brains are completely different in many different ways! I always knew there were some differences, but I never knew just how much was actually different until I started reading this book. There were many interesting facts and information to back up just how different boys and girls really are with how their brain is built up.
I think you got it right on the head. Not only are there developmental differences in the brain, but differences in general... physical, cognitive, emotional, etc. It makes so much sense, because here we are as teachers to not have favorites in the classroom, girls vs. boys, but we have to look at the facts and really recognize those differences in order to teach our students effectively.
