具体描述
Helen Fisher's courageous investigations of romantic love -- its evolution, its biochemical foundations and its vital importance to human society -- are informing and transforming the way we understand ourselves. Fisher describes love as a universal human drive (stronger than the sex drive; stronger than thirst or hunger; stronger perhaps than the will to live), and her many areas of inquiry shed light on timeless human mysteries, like why we choose one partner over another.
Almost unique among scientists, Fisher explores the science of love without losing a sense of romance: Her work frequently invokes poetry, literature and art -- along with scientific findings -- helping us appreciate our love affair with love itself. In her research, and in books such as Anatomy of Love and 2004's Why We Love, Fisher looks at questions with real impact on modern life. Her latest research raises serious concerns about the widespread, long-term use of antidepressants, which may undermine our natural process of attachment by tampering with hormone levels in the brain.
"In hands as skilled and sensitive as Fisher's, scientific analysis of love only adds to its magic."
Scientific American

读后感
以科学/生物学的角度来阐述人类世界永恒的主题 --- 爱（两性之间的爱） 虽然听上去，很冰冷，一点都不浪漫； 但是，当你轻松地去读时，你会发现真的很好玩。 人类的爱分成三个阶段：lust, romatic love & attachment，而这一切的process都是由我们的大脑里的化学物质所导致...
评分给一个没有科学常识的人解释科学研究成果，这大概是世界上最难的事情之一。其难度不亚于教会老妈如何使用计算机除了QQ农场以外的功能——你得不断停下来解释一些你认为对方应该知道但其实对方完全不知道的东西；一不小心就得从三百年前开始讲起、讲到第二百年、对方又把前一百...
评分几年前的一个夜晚，我和同居的女朋友偎在卧室里，举着酒杯，看未删减版的《色|戒》——不不不，我俩都是直的。不出意外的，我们都对某些人津津乐道的奇淫巧计没什么兴趣，而是在想：谁说身体的纠缠不会滋生情感的依恋呢？王佳芝对易先生显然是“有情”的，只是她的情，起于床笫...
评分《情种起源》用科学解释爱情，很多有趣的例子，有点意思，女性喜欢金钱和地位高的雄性是护育幼雏的本能，男性喜欢腰臀比为0.7的年轻女性，在寻求短期情人时，他们更倾向于无视一个女人的无脑，喜欢有过去的女人，而选择长期伴侣时，无论如何，他们会对基本品格变得吹毛求疵起来...
评分看了这本《情种起源》，首先给我的感触就是美国人就是厉害，能把人类最原始的问题研究的如此的透彻。 在我国的历史上，关于性情的研究也有先例。“情不知所起，一往而情深”，“食色性也”，以及“性格”等词语都和性情有关。但是，从科学的角度研究情和性的根源则没有过。这...
