Anatomy of Love: A Natural History of Mating, Marriage, and Why We Stray by Helen Fisher

3.0

Pretty cool anthropological study of love, attraction, lust, and infidelity. I love how Fisher brings in prehistorical people and the little evidence we have about their lives to bring our own present into focus. I could see where people would grab this thinking it's a book about modern love, but she brings in a lot of history and a very anthropological analysis. The title is pretty sexy, but the book is pretty damn nerdy, which I liked. It did feel a little repetitive or drawn out at times.
