Decoding Love: Why it Takes Twelve Frogs to Find a Prince and Other Revelations from the Science of Attraction

by Andrew Trees (Author)

Synopsis

You meet someone. You fall in love. If all goes well, that person falls in love with you and you live happily ever after. Yet is finding love really that straightforward? Andrew Trees draws from the latest studies in economics, neuro-chemistry, game theory, evolutionary psychology and other fields to take on a topic we all think we understand - how we fall in love - and turn it on its head. Discover why: certain perfume fragrances make you appear slimmer; human testicle size is an indicator of our promiscuous past; and, you need to date twelve people to find Mr or Mrs Right - and the mathematical theory behind it. Page turning, thought provoking, and sparkling with wit, "Decoding Love" offers surprising new insights into the nature of attraction, as well as an intimate look at the strange intersection of romance and the modern world of dating.
