Psychology professor Paul Eastwick says this popular "evolutionary" story is unscientific, and sometimes dangerous. Drawing on original research from his own lab, he reveals a more hopeful truth: attraction isn't about hierarchies of 10s and 2s, it's about finding, and often building, real compatibility.Why we chose it: "Rarely have scientific rigour and exuberant optimism been such congenial companions." - Eric Klinenberg, co-author of Modern RomanceInspired by our monthly non-fiction reads, our mix of part cocktail party, part creative classroom is a recipe that builds your reading habit while connecting with like minded people.Interested?
