Make Love Like a Prairie Vole

The

prairie vole, a small rodent from the mid-western plains of the USA, has it

made. Not only do prairie voles pair off for life but they spend hours grooming

and cuddling in their burrows. At their peak, they will make love for two-day

marathons! They are great parents too, with the male vole completely involved

in caring for his pups. In contrast, their cousins the meadow

voles mate indiscriminately and live solitary lives, with the female meadow

vole left to bring up her offspring alone.

Because

neuroscientists are so interested in the radical difference between these two

lifestyles, we know more about the brain make-up of prairie voles than any other

creature. Thanks to them, we are now beginning to understand the biochemical

pathways of love shared by all species of animals, including ourselves, and the

key to a more fulfilling sex life.

Marital

Therapist Andrew G Marshall combines this latest scientific research with

twenty-five years'' professional experience of helping couples turn around their

love lives. In Make Love Like a Prairie Vole, he has created a programme that will not only

transform routine into passionate sex but also leads to the kind of lovemaking

that will bind you and your partner together as a couple.
