Over the decades, the sex ratio at college campuses has shifted to favor cisgender female students. A book excerpt reveals how this is changing the dating scene in unexpected ways. Another fascinating excerpt here explores how cultures create emotions. I’m such a sucker for stories about intergenerational friendships! The piece about the wallpaper queens of L.A. is a great one, full of gems about the philosophy of life. It’s also a treat to see the Death Valley “racetrack” framed by dazzling astrophotography of the Milky Way.
