Dear Publishers of "the Brain in Love":
There's this job people can do in the publishing business called editing. I think you should hire some editors and put them to work on this thing, which can really only loosely be called a book. Can a couple of loosely held together articles smushed together into a book shape and filled up with pages of internet jokes and plot summaries of movies be called a book? Maybe. But it's a sorry excuse for one.
Now, I see that this was once call More...

The first part of the book is interesting - but the thing that concerned me was that the book soon begins to read like a huge info-commercial for the author's clinic and his various treatments. Also, there doesn't seem to be much evidence of independent conformation of much of what he is saying.
Interesting to read, but I'd take a lot of what he is saying with a huge amount of skepticism.

Fascinating book on the physiological differences in brains and the impact of brain health on our personalities. This is not just a book about men/women, but a great book that helps us understand how to keep our brains healthy for happiness.

Very intersesting book looking at the science behind the differences between men and women and people. Really enjoyed it and would love to have my brain scanned to figure out what parts arent working or working too much

Not as easy/flowy of a read as I would have liked, but some interesting chapters. Read this book if you've ever wondered what was happening in your brain at different stages in a romantic relationship.

As usual I don't agree with everything in this book (I found myself muttering "citation needed" on more than one occasion) but overall, it's interesting & entertaining.

Very Interesting. A look at how our brain chemistry and the various neurotransmitters impact our ability to fall/stay in love, and have a healthy and enjoyable sex life.

Highly recommended. This book applies current neuroscience to love, affection, and sex. Guaranteed you'll learn something, and that something could very well change your life dramatically.

The one exceptional thing I got from this book that has stuck with me is: "don't have sex with anyone you don't plan to fall in love with."
That rings true because I've had numerous friends who have said, they were only in it for 'one' thing blah blah blah. But when it came down to it, that one thing turned out to be wrong. Men can separate their feelings a lot easier then women can.

I especially enjoyed the neuroscience part of this book which looks at what happens when too much or too little activity is occurring in specific parts of the brain. There were also some good practical suggestions for improving brain function and therefore relationships.

An interesting look at our physiological influences. Reminds me of the phrase "you are what you eat"... we are all subject to the genetic components we're comprised of, but we do have some control.

explains why we do the things we do when dating and how our impulses are a product of our brain activity. nourish your heart, nourish your brain.

I wanted this to be a book on the neuropsychology of compatibility and love. Its not. Its about sex, period. I'm disappointed.

Helped me understand the un-understandable. Who would have thought that there is a logical reason for love.
