false 3788956 1 Why does nothing turn a baby's head more quickly from nursing or playing than a passing dog or cat? How did a wolf pup taken into an Ice Age cave learn to keep coming back? Why do skittish herd animals like horses form such devoted bonds with riders that a twitch of the rein can send them into battle or fire? <P><I>Made for Each Other</I> is the first book to lay out both sides of this deep mutual connection. Drawing on the fascinating work of scientists in a wide range of fields - from behavioral psychology and neuroscience to zoology and anthropology - as well as her own investigations, Meg Daley Olmert explores the evolution and hormonal basis of biophilia, and its great importance to our well-being.
