Description
Love Sick Love as a Mental Illness explores how our experiences and expressions of love are intertwined with mental illness. Dr. Frank Tallis examines why romantic love continues to be a popular subject for poets, philosophers, songwriters, and scientists.
The book delves into the history of how symptoms of mental illness have been used to describe the state of being in love, offering an insightful look at one of the most important aspects of human behavior. Tallis questions whether our attitudes towards love are healthy and whether there may be more sane ways to love.
