商品簡介
Researchers in psychology, ethology, anthropology, and biology examine what makes some faces more attractive than others, employing evolutionary, cognitive, and social psychology perspectives. They discuss biological, social, and developmental issues involved in facial attractiveness, looking at how and why we are attracted to certain facial types and how that attraction can influence social interaction. Some areas discussed include cyclic hormonal changes and self-perceived attractiveness as factors in female preferences for male faces, and cultural perspectives on facial attractiveness.
