This book discusses the biological evolution of love from the perspectives of evolutionary biology, paleontology, archaeology, anthropology, neuroscience, psychology, and other disciplines. This interdisciplinary book presents an extensive analysis of the numerous studies, theories, and research findings about the biological evolution of love and love-related constructs. The author has compiled and presented multiple scholarly publications that have been available about the evolutionary science of love over the recent couple of centuries.
This book provides the most comprehensive review of the biological evolution of love in varieties of its types across many species of plants, birds, animals, especially mammals, and in the early human ancestors. The author systematically examines research findings and discoveries focusing on the scholarly knowledge of the evolutionary processes that have been occurring throughout substantial periods of time, thousands and millions of years.
