A story of love

The Science and Mystery of Love

Love. Novels and songs are written about it, we talk about it with friends, we feel it, we experience it. But what actually is it? Thanks to modern scientific approaches, we know for a fact that love is not just an emotion. Contemporary science is uncovering the nature of this complex process–from the first pangs of infatuation to the processes in the brain when we try to forge it into a stronger, long-term bond with another person. So has science taken over the principle of love? And if we can explain love scientifically, does it still hold any mystery?
In his new book, psychotherapist Honza Vojtko responsibly and with the appropriate expertise attempts to describe this phenomenon, delving 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. In doing so, he writes a distinctive story of love.
