   From Sex to Money to Food: Taming Our Primal Instincts

   

   The book explores the idea that many of our impulses and behaviors, from our eating habits to our financial decisions, are influenced by genetic programming that evolved to ensure survival and reproduction in ancient environments. The authors, both experts in evolutionary biology, use a mix of scientific research and engaging anecdotes to explain how these inherited traits often clash with the demands of modern life, leading to common human challenges such as obesity, debt, and addiction. They also offer strategies for overcoming these innate tendencies to achieve better health, financial stability, and overall well-being.
