I love getting old books for their occasional anachronism but mostly because I think older authors were generally more sensible. This book is a bit anachronistic, but I love its candor. No one today could write about dressing to impress women without some references to faddish fashions and hipsterism of shows like "Sex in the City." Molloy is clearly more grounded in the timely fields of evolutionary biology and neuroaesthetics than those writing today on the same topics he covers. Some specific recommendations may be outdated, and the format is not really adequate to be of practical use as a guide to purchasing, but a fun read nonetheless.
