When did humans begin to kiss? Why is kissing integral to some
cultures and alien to others? Do good kissers make the best lovers?
And is that expensive lip-plumping gloss worth it? Sheril
Kirshenbaum, a marine biologist and science journalist, tackles
these questions and more in THE SCIENCE OF KISSING. It's everything
you always wanted to know about kissing but either haven't asked,
can't find out, or didn't realize you should understand. Sheril's a
serious scientist, and the material here is informed by the results
of the latest studies and theories, but she's also got an engaging,
delightful voice and offers information with a light, humorous
touch. Topics range from the kind of kissing men like to do (as
distinct from women), to what animals can teach us about the kiss,
to whether or not the true art of kissing was lost sometime in the
Dark Ages, to what, really, makes us kiss. Employing an
interdisciplinary approach--drawing upon classical history,
evolutionary biology, psychology, popular culture, and
more--Kirshenbaum's winning book will appeal to romantics and
armchair scientists alike.
