A Billion Wicked Thoughts
What the Internet Tells Us About Sexual Relationships
Ogi Ogas - 2011-05-05
Goodreads Rating
A mind-blowing exploration of human sexuality, this book uses the internet to study the private activities of millions of people around the world. Two neuroscientists uncover a shocking new perspective on our desires, offering jaw-dropping insights into the differences between male and female sexual cues. Their research suggests that women's desires are much more fluid, and that the male sexual brain is wired like a reckless hunter, while the female brain resembles a cautious detective agency. Findings include evidence that men prefer overweight women, and many seek out erotic images of women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s. This controversial read is perfect for those with an open mind and a passion for discovery.

Explore the idea of human nature with Steven Pinker's The Blank Slate. Pinker delves into the three linked dogmas that have denied the existence of human nature and how they have caused harm to our understanding of individual preferences, social problems, and government. He uses clear thinking, common sense, and pertinent facts from science and history to disarm even the most menacing threats to the existence of human nature. Discover why an acknowledgement of human nature grounded in science and common sense can complement insights about the human condition made by millennia of artists and philosophers.
