Summary: A Must to Read
Review: A detailed exploration of love and marriage. Not just a book about different methods of succeeding in a relationship... it also details the scientific aspect of love: what happens to the body and how these chemical influence our emotions. As well as thought provoking essays on why some relationships go "stale" and why others do not. Highly recommeded.

Review: Definitely a book worth reading! It reads easily, like a book of short stories, in that the essays are brief and easily readable in short sittings -you can pick it up, read an essay or two, and pick it up again later. Each essay puts forth a concept about an aspect of love, relationships, marriage -- and there is always a morsel - or more - that one can relate to. I found it fascinating to look at my marriage through the lenses and philosophies of these wise authors and experts; to validate and illuminate those things that ring true for me/us, and even spotlight potential pitfalls to avoid. Some of the essays speak more to me than others, but that's what makes this book work so well...there is something here for everyone to relate to and learn from.

Summary: A Gentle, Inspiring Book About Love
Review: This lovely book is composed mostly of short essays by professional therapists who have published books on relationships or who run relationship seminars, and Art Linkletter (!). The theme is that love changes, and true love is as much a maturing of self as knowing the right things to do or say. The many authors each have their own unique wisdom and perception of what love is, and it makes for pleasant, encouraging, and enlightening reading!
