Description
Love. Novels and songs are written about it, we talk about it with friends, we feel it, we experience it.
But what is it really? Thanks to modern scientific approaches, we definitively know that love is not just an emotion. Contemporary science uncovers the nature of this complex process - from the first pangs of infatuation to the events in the brain when we try to transform it into a stronger and more lasting bond with another person. Has science thus taken over the principle of love? And when we can explain love scientifically, does it still hold any mystery?
Psychotherapist Honza Vojtko responsibly and with appropriate expertise attempts to describe this phenomenon in his new book, with insights into history, sociology, neurology, philosophy, and theology. He wants to capture the paths we take in pursuit of love and what we carry from them into our everyday lives. Thus, he writes a personal story of love.
