monogamy is against nature?

this question is a new book called "Sex at Dawn. Why Monogamy goes against Nature" .

The authors Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jetha put it on the theory that monogamy is a recent phenomenon of human history that is not compatible with our investment.
draw the conclusion that we consider the conventional patterns of relationships, at least critically, if not even need to think - as rigid sexual morality against human nature is.
be because people from a biological perspective simply not created for it to maintain lifelong, monogamous partnerships.
On the basis of physiological, archaeological, anthropological (from pre-agricultural tribes around the world) findings as well as those that deal with primates, they draw the conclusion that monogamy and nuclear family is more recent phenomena in human history, thought of as the most and no more "natural", than most of us.

One argument is about, that people lived before the operation of agriculture in a much less sexually all-consuming culture in which there were no life-long partnerships. Also, would the bonobos, our closest relatives, who live in egalitarian and peaceful groups, by an astronomical number of sexual contacts distinguished, indicating that such behavior is more our nature.

note the difference to a earlier post, in which the "monogamy gene" was mentioned - Louann Brizendine has, as written in the earlier post, described the bonobos as animals, the length of the "monogamy gene" is associated with peacefulness and social behavior. This length corresponds to some extent that of the people. Anyone who has a longer gene, is a socially competent people. Yet, because according to Brizendine would bonobos but the Length of their monogamy gene (which is longer than in chimpanzees) on their social skills also faithful, monogamous creatures - at least faithful and monogamous than chimpanzees - his and everyone who has seen even a documentary about bonobos, knows that this is not so. Brizendine is also assumed that the bonobos 'monogamy gene' socially competent and peaceful power, but ultimately not true.
This is reflected in the adventurous interpretation of the behavior of bonobos, are on what shaky ground the arguments from the natural slope to polygamy.

shows from these two contradictory assumptions on the same subject, therefore, that the thing is just so simple and we just nciht be little by our genes to polygamy "forced" as illustrated by our nature. On the other hand, both authors come to the same conclusion - polygamy is natural behavior, they differ only in whether all, or only for those that have the specific gene of appropriate length. pay
