- Synopsis
- Oxytocin is a hormone that has been implicated in romantic and maternal love. As a producer of nature documentaries for television who participated in research on the neurobiology of social bonding, Olmert examines the evidence for oxytocin as also being the basis for the evolution of the human-animal bond. Her interesting, general audience treatment concludes by noting the facilitators and barriers modern society poses for this relationship. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
