Opća teorija ljubavi

Opća teorija ljubavi

Thomas Lewis, Fari Amini, Richard Lannon

A work of rare originality, passion, and eloquence, The General Theory of Love will forever change the way you think about human intimacy and love.

Inspired by new scientific discoveries about the human brain, three American scientists describe our ancient, fundamental urge for closeness, revealing that the human nervous system is not self-sufficient: from the earliest childhood, our brains connect with the brains of people close to us, in a silent rhythm that constitutes the body's life force . These tacit bonds determine our mood, stabilize and maintain our health, and change the structure of our brains, so that, in a very real sense, who we are and what we will become depends on who we love.

A General Theory of Love applies these remarkable scientific observations to some of the most important problems we face, explaining how relationships work, how parents shape a child's developing personality, how psychotherapy really works, what fosters violence in children as modern society dangerously violates our basic emotional laws.
