In On Friendship, science journalist Lydia Denworth goes in search of the biological, psychological, and evolutionary foundations of friendship. With her, we visit a monkey sanctuary in Puerto Rico and a baboon colony in Kenya to explore the monkeys' social bonds to understand our own. The author shows that friendship originated at the dawn of humanity: the desire for close bonds exists in primates as well. Lydia Denworth also meets scientists working at the cutting edge of brain and genetics research and discovers that friendship is reflected in brain waves, genomes, and the human cardiovascular and immune systems, while loneliness can cause measurable damage to health and increases the risk of death. The author concludes that social connections are critical to health and longevity and encourages us to emphasize our friendships and nurture our friendships.
