An Expert Look at Love, Intimacy and Personal Growth Second Edition 2008 |
After

relationships can be so irrational. |

Love You Madly! On Passion, Personality and Personal Growth |
 |
by Robert M. Gordon, Ph.D.
What does it take to have a lasting love relationship? Dr. Robert Gordon shows that the course of love is fairly predictable based on the personalities and histories of the lovers. Only insight and mutual concern can help change this path. He explains the psychology of romantic love from both personal and professional perspectives. Along the way, he integrates evolutionary psychology, psychoanalysis and social psychology in the context of dramatic stories of love and psychotherapy. Learn how to recognize healthy love relations from relationship killers such as narcissism, defensiveness and hostility. I Love You Madly! informs about the science of psychology, yet reads as an entertaining novel.
