About the book
Matt Ridley challenges simplistic narratives about evolution, arguing that sexual competition — not just survival — was a fundamental evolutionary force in shaping human nature. The book interweaves findings from evolutionary biology, primatology and genetics to illuminate how sexual selection shaped our instincts, reproductive behaviors and social structures.
A provocative exploration that repositions the role of sexuality in human evolutionary history, challenging conventional assumptions about gender and nature.
