      Mathematics and Sex ( http://www.amazon.com/Mathematics-Sex-Clio-Cresswell/dp/B005... ) got a way more detailled discussion on mate finding strategies, quite an enjoyable read.

      Love the title! Can never go wrong adding “in the bedroom” to liven up a title.

      There’s a math book that also has a catchy title: Mathematics and Sex, by Clio Cresswell
