An attempt to change the concept
I have finished reading: The Great Pheromone Myth by Richard L. Doty (Hardcover – Feb 8, 2010) and have posted my review.
At several different conferences during the past decade, Dr. Doty and I have discussed the similarities and differences in our perspective on mammalian pheromones, including human pheromones. One of the biggest problems that both of us have is the way the concept of human pheromones has been marketed.
