"A drop-dead shocker."--Washington Post Book World
"Ambitious....Buss is refreshingly evenhanded."--Elle
"Clear, coherent, and convincing...[What] makes it intriguing are
the insights it offers into our behavior and the behavior of our
partners, lovers and friends."--Philadelphia Inquirer
"David Buss examines that most quintessential of biological desires
in the context of modern biology--the ultimate explanations for why
we have the thoughts and feelings we do. It is a book filled with
insight, surprises, and lucid explanations of the latest ideas and
discoveries from the sciences of love and sex."--Steven Pinker,
