出汗可能是我们最奇怪的生物功能,但同时也是最重要和最不为人所知的功能;在本书中,莎拉·艾佛兹深入探讨了汗水在人体中的作用——以及在人类历史中的作用。为何汗水是咸的?为何压力大时会出汗?为何有的人会出五颜六色的汗?除了单纯臭味或所谓的费洛蒙,是否应该担心“老大哥”会追踪从汗水中渗出的数百种分子;还有那些揭示健康和恶习秘密的分子?艾佛兹的有趣调查将读者带到了世界各地——从她参加约会活动的莫斯科,人们在那裡嗅汗以寻找爱情,到纽泽西州,公司聘请训练有素的腋窝嗅探师来评估其防汗产品的功效。在芬兰,艾佛兹探索了传说中蒸桑拿的乐趣和所谓的出汗对健康的好处,而在荷兰,她潜入了桑拿剧院的场景当中,里面则充满了服装、特效和毛巾舞。在此过程中,艾佛兹追溯了人类控制汗水的长期追求,最终形成了价值数十亿美元的除臭剂和止汗剂产业。她表明,虽然出汗可能令人讨厌,但我们体内复杂的“温度控制策略”是人类最强大的生物学特征。艾佛兹以极大的热情深入研究和写作,本书是对人类生活中平凡通俗但引人入胜的事实之全新诠释。
