About this product

Product Information

'This book opens the Pandora's Box on this most complex and puzzling aspect of what it is to be human' Robin Dunbar, author of Friends 'Anna Machin offers a lively guide to the many kinds of human love that exist, and the biology and psychology that explain why we love the way we do' Frans de Waal, author of Mama's Last Hug In this entertaining and accessible exploration of love, Oxford anthropologist Dr Anna Machin dives into the science behind the myriad types of love that exist in the world, including romantic love, parental love, friendships, love for pets, football teams, religious love and even love for our smartphones. Through original research brought to life by interviews and case studies, and encompassing such fascinating areas as polyamorous relationships, parasocial (love for a celebrity) and sacred loves, this book argues that it is time to stop putting romantic love on a pedestal. By exploring the science that illuminates the benefits of all our different close relationships, Dr Anna Machin encourages us to reconsider the importance of love in our own lives, to interrogate our own experiences, and to reconnect with the heart of what it really means to be human.

    Late giving feedback due to multiple order from this seller and one item was wrong. When I pointed this out to them they apologised and told me to keep unordered item and they would send me the correct item, which has just arrived safely, a little late but I got a bonus item to boot, so, very pleased. Can't really fault them.

    My clearance Order arrived today, after a quick dispatch and fairly prompt free delivery service. The book is in exactly the same condition as it was described, and still represents great value for money from this very reliable and most helpful seller. I would highly recommend using this exceptional online business for whatever you may need from them, they will not let you down. First class transaction and five star care and assistance!! Thank you so much!!

    Great price & quick delivery. Would have preferred protective cardboard packing. 2 x heavy hardcover books sent in thin paper & bubblewrap jiffy bag so both items arrived with completely unnecessary dents. Would like to buy more books from this seller but the thin packing is putting me off.
