A groundbreaking book about how your personality
type determines who you love Why do you fall in
love with one person rather than another? In this
fascinating and informative book, Helen Fisher, one of the
world’s leading experts on romantic love, unlocks the hidden
code of desire and attachment. Each of us, it turns out,
primarily expresses one of four broad personality
types—Explorer, Builder, Director, or Negotiator—and each of
these types is governed by different chemical systems in the
brain. Driven by this biology, we are attracted to partners
who both mirror and complement our own personality type.
Until now the search for love has been blind, but
Fisher pulls back the curtain and reveals how we
unconsciously go about finding the right match. Drawing on
her unique study of 40,000 men and women, she explores each
personality type in detail and shows you how to identify
your own type. Then she explains why some types match up
well, whereas others are problematic. (Note to Explorers: be
prepared for a wild ride when you hitch your star to a
fellow Explorer!) Ultimately, Fisher’s investigation into
the complex nature of romance and attachment leads to
astonishing new insights into the essence of dating, love,
and marriage. Based on entirely new research—including
a detailed questionnaire completed by five million people in
thirty-three countries—Why Him? Why Her? will change
your understanding of why you love him (or her) and help you
use nature’s chemistry to find and keep your life
partner.
