By Cindy Meston and David Buss
The Bodley Head 306pp £12.99 order from our bookshop
The question is not why women have sex, but why it takes ‘one of the world’s leading experts on the psychophysiology of women’s sexuality’ and ‘one of the world’s leading experts on the strategies of human mating’ five years of research to state the bleeding obvious.
