Ever since mankind first walked the Earth, they’ve been immersed in the emotional sensation of being drawn to another person. This sensation is love, and it feels different for each individual. But in truth, we don’t understand the feelings of love and attraction that well. So while many are experiencing it first-hand, there are others dedicated to studying it; others like Helen Fisher.
Biological anthropologist and world-renowned authority on love, sex, and marriage, Helen Fisher, PhD., sat down for a segment of One-on-One with Steve Adubato to talk about her book, Anatomy of Love.

The Science of Love
“Everything you’ve ever wanted or needed to know about love, you’re going to find out right now,” Adubato tells viewers during the introduction.
Fisher has spent years studying the effects and evolution of love, calling it “one of the most powerful brain systems that ever evolved.” She goes on to explain that “[Love] makes the world go ‘round… We pine for love; we live for love; kill for love; we die for love.”
Through her book, Fisher describes a number of elements of love, ranging from falling in love to rejection and cheating. She shares facts, stats, and evidence she has found over the years, offering readers insight into the world of love.
