Kinsey Institute's Dr. Justin Garcia Releases New Book, 'The Intimate Animal'

LOS ANGELES — The Kinsey Institute's executive director, Dr. Justin Garcia, has released a new book, "The Intimate Animal."

The title explores the science behind why people crave connection, why relationships can be complicated, and how intimacy anchors people in the world.

"With warmth and clarity, his book explains how humans have evolved to need meaningful relationships, while exploring how modern challenges such as digital dating, shifting social norms, and the loneliness epidemic are impacting our ability to connect today," said a rep. "Blending rigorous science with real-world relevance, 'The Intimate Animal' shows us we are not prisoners of our drives for sex or love. And the more we understand about the science behind our choices, the better equipped we are to build healthy and happy relationships."

The book is available at the Kinsey Institute's website.
