Poets, philosophers and artists have been trying to explain romantic
love for centuries, but it remains one of the most complex and
intimidating terrains to navigate. Most people have been afraid to be
open and honest about their relationships...until now.
For Love Understood, Laura Mucha has interviewed hundreds of
strangers, from the ages of 8 to 95 in more than 40 countries, asking
them to share their most personal stories, feelings and insights about
love. These intimate and illuminating conversations raised important
questions, such as:
- How does your upbringing influence your relationships?
- Does love at first sight exist? Should you 'just know'?
- What should you look for in a partner?
- Is monogamy natural?
- Why do people cheat?
- How do you know when it's time to walk away?
Drawing on psychology, philosophy, anthropology and statistics, Love
Understood combines evidence, theory and everyday experience and is the
perfect listen for anyone who is curious about how we think, feel and
behave when it comes to love.
