The Biology of Love

For more than thirty years, the author has been conducting groundbreaking research in the field of psychotherapy. He is considered the father of "primary therapy", a method of coping with the earliest, unconscious traumas that covertly affect the lives of most of us. In this book you will learn how parental love affects us in the early stages of life: how it shapes our brains and marks us for life. What you won't find in this book is clinical neurobiology. Revolutionary discoveries in the field of human brain research require that findings from the field of neurology be combined with observations from clinical practice and presented in a popular form. This book is written for the layperson who wants to learn how feelings and emotions - what "moves" us when we feel - affect our lives.
