“Our modern dating innovations don’t seem well suited to this new scientific vision of human connection.”
_{—Paul Eastwick, Bonded By Evolution}

In Bonded By Evolution, Paul Eastwick offers a groundbreaking look at the science of attraction and compatibility, challenging our most fundamental assumptions about how human mating evolved.

Distilling evolutionary biology, anthropology, and psychology into accessible insights, the book explains why we so often choose dating strategies that make us miserable and how to use a more evolved approach.

SMARTEST TAKEAWAYS
Romantic Attachment

1️⃣ The traits we often look for in a partner—personality, lifestyle, values, and humor—are poor predictors of compatibility.

2️⃣ Someone’s tendency to “date around” or their reputation as a player has little bearing on their long-term relationship potential.

3️⃣ The most secure relationships offer a “safe haven” and “secure base” for each partner.

EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK
Treat the Loneliness First

“Many people who are single and searching for a partner have happy and fulfilling social lives otherwise. For others, the search is a struggle, and the lack of a partner and a broader sense of loneliness go hand in hand. . . . Fortunately, the most effective ways of finding a romantic partner have a lot in common with the most effective ways of addressing loneliness, and tackling the loneliness first can make the partner-search more fun and less frantic.” — Bonded By Evolution
