A Darwinian Theory of Beauty, by Dr. Dennis Dutton
One of my all time favorite Ted talks. Dr. Dennis Dutton illustrates how humans are hard wired to be attracted to beauty and what it means for survival. Not just physical, but emotional and spiritual survival. Very interesting indeed. Approximately 15 minutes long and a very worthwhile use of your time.
