Product Information

In their book, Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jethá debunk almost everything we "know" about sex, with a bold alternative explanation. The central contention is that human beings evolved in egalitarian groups that shared food, child care, and, often, sexual partners.

The authors show how far from human nature monogamy really is and expose the ancient roots of human sexuality while pointing toward a more optimistic future illuminated by our innate capacities for love, cooperation, and generosity.

The authors also show:

- Why sexual passion tends to fade even as love deepens
- Explore why long-term fidelity can be so difficult for so many
- Why homosexuality persists in the face of standard evolutionary logic
- What the human body reveals about the prehistoric origins of modern sexuality
- Why many middle-aged men risk everything for transient affairs with younger women
- How our promiscuous past haunts our struggles over monogamy, sexual orientation, and family dynamics
