Why beautiful people have more daughters
Book • 2007
Satoshi Kanazawa's "Why Beautiful People Have More Daughters" is a controversial yet thought-provoking exploration of evolutionary psychology.
Kanazawa argues that physical attractiveness plays a significant role in reproductive success, with beautiful people tending to have more daughters.
The book challenges conventional wisdom and sparks debate about the interplay between genetics, environment, and social dynamics in shaping human behavior.
Kanazawa's work is often criticized for its provocative claims and potential biases, but it nonetheless stimulates discussion about the complex factors influencing human reproduction and mate selection.
The book's central thesis remains a subject of ongoing scientific inquiry and public discourse.
