Reviews

"""A pop-science analysis of the complex brain chemicals behind lust and love...The book is sure to hook even casual science readers with its subject."" -- ""Kirkus Reviews"" ""Combine a first-class neuroscientist like Young, director of Emory University's Center for Translational Social Neuroscience, and an award-winning science journalist like Alexander, and the result is likely to be an engaging book about cutting edge science. They do a wonderful job of mixing and matching human studies with those of other animals to explain how chemicals influence and, at times, control behavior associated with sex, love, and longing."" -- ""Publishers Weekly "" ""If you've ever been curious--and let's face it, we all have--about the intricate dance of biology and behavior that both brings men and women together and pushes them apart, then The Chemistry Between Us is the book for you. Authors Larry Young and Brian Alexander explore questions as gentle as parenting and as edgy as sexual addiction with consistent style, humor, and insight. The result is a story that's fun, fascinating, and, finally, insightful."" -- ""Deborah Blum, Pulitzer Prize winner; author of Sex on the Brain, Love at Goon Park, and The Poisoner's Handbook"" ""One wild and entertaining ride. The prose in The Chemistry Between Us is lively and fun--and provides a fresh and unapologetically pointed analysis on what understanding the neurobiological correlates of love may mean for both our relationships and our culture."" -- ""New Scientist"""
