Essential Ideas: Love - Paperback

by The School of Life (Author)

The School of Life's approach to love - in a pocket format

In the first of a series of pocket books, The School of Life has distilled its most essential ideas on love in order to produce a bitesize manual that is both useful and entertaining. We learn - among other things - how to pick partners more reliably, how to avoid conflict and how to know whether a relationship is really for us. By exploring key themes within the topic of relationships, such as Anxious Attachment, Attachment theory, Long-term love, Romantic disappointment, Secrets in love and Crushes, this book shows us how satisfied love life is not a chance event but something that we can all plot for and achieve. Love is a skill, not an emotion; this is a guide to how we might master it.Pair with the Connect Cards and The Compatibility Game, to help foster connection and closeness.
