I want to suggest a book to those of you who are interested in explanations that mean something, and who have some interest in science. It is called "A General Theory of Love" and is by three California psychiatrists (M.D.s). Reading the reader reviews on Amazon will give you an idea of what other readers think of it.

(Some Amazon reviewers did not like their style, though.) From one reader review of the book: "Warning: The General Theory of Love contains highly innovative ideas that are elegantly stated. It has been found in some cases that reading this book carefully may cause greater understanding of the world we live in." I also do not think the book is perfect. I had some bones to pick with it. Still I think it is an unusually significant contribution.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
