    Non-fiction vs. Fiction

    Not sure whether the behavioural differences are biological or from socialisation, but males generally have more of a preference towards non-fiction. I generally read fiction more as a proportion of the books I read, probably for the escapism. Of the non-fiction, I generally read books to learn...

    Hardest Humanities subject(s)?
