Publisher's summary

Subconscious and psychologically proven methods to attract the opposite sex, spark chemistry, and create feelings of affection and love.

There is a definitive science to attraction, and it turns out we've been doing it wrong...or doing it right for all the wrong reasons. This book is your textbook and field manual for (1) how to flirt better, (2) how to have better sex, and (3) how to plant the seeds of romantic love in whomever you want.

Understand the instinctual triggers of attraction.

The Science of Attraction is an in-depth look at human attraction and what draws people together. It dives into peer-reviewed research, combined with the insightful and straightforward observations of a renowned dating coach. Patrick King is an internationally best-selling author and acclaimed speaker and coach. Together, this book is the ultimate guide to inform, diagnose, and recommend highly actionable steps to take your dating life to the next level.

Find the shortcut to powerful chemistry.

Too often, we rely on our own experiences with a sample size of one, or advice from friends that are perpetually single. There's a better way - looking at the research and evidence about what we really want, not what we think we want. You'll learn why we like whom we like, and what to do about it.

Amazing

This makes confusing topics so easy to understand and it makes so much sense. I already know this is gonna turn into a bit of a bible for me. Definitely a book you listen to over and over again. Way more useful than I thought it was gonna be! :)

Not enough information here

The subject matter is innately interesting and I listened to the end. But most of the content was too simple for me and stuff that I knew already. If you are new to the subject of gender differences and attraction I'd recommend it. One thing I didn't know is that what people say they want in a mate and who they are actually attracted to don't necessarily match up.

one of the best dating book I've listened to

I've read numerous dating book from leading authors but this one is maybe only second to The Art of Seduction, whilst being far more concise. It sums up sciences that other books I've listened to have taken hours to explain. a great guide.

fair enough

there is thin line between teaching(step by step) and describing a fact. i mean, if you describe what a burglar is... is different from telling how to be a burglar in a step by step manner.
there some section that teaches.. and most of the content would just describe you what it is.

A good resource. A scientifically based book.

Unlike many other resources on dating and attraction, this book appropriately lives up to its title. It relates information from various studies and other respected books on the subject.
