Why Is Sex Fun?: The Evolution of Human Sexuality by Jared Diamond
3.0
3 stars, because I liked it. I was awfully close two stars however.
My third romp around with Jared Diamond, WISF is a quick read on mostly behavior related quirks of human sexuality vs other animal species.
Most of the book is spent on the questions of "why mostly monogamous relationships in humans?" and "why menopause" . I was expecting more information on the development of various physical structures and reactions, however there was only about 10 pages of that at the very end.
While i learned a bit, it feels a wholly incomplete experience - sorta foreplay to the entire compendium on the subject. It feels like he wrote about what he knew directly and didnt have to do any additional research for.
