Anthropologist Helen Fisher studies gender differences and the evolution of human emotions. She's best known as an expert on romantic love, and her beautifully penned books -- including Anatomy of Love and Why We Love -- lay bare the mysteries of our most treasured emotion.
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."

評分 評分科学和浪漫似乎水火不容,就像理性和感性恰好对立。一本科学系的书籍,真的能找到爱情的答案吗?遇见这本《情种起源》,是在内心最彷徨之时。 作者海伦•费舍尔在开篇写道:“为什么我们相爱。为什么我们选择自己选择的那个人。男人和女人在各自的浪漫感情中有何不同?一见...
評分 評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...
