Falling in love is a complicated, messy, mad endeavour - and staying in love is even worse. All too often our hopes end in heartbreak and our dreams in tatters, but there is a rational alternative to romantic despair. Drawing on her own experience as a psychoanalyst, and the combined wisdom of philosophers, poets, scientists and singers, Anouchka Grose offers some serious solutions to the conundrums of love. 'Wry, witty and enlightening, Anouchka Grose's book will both delight and instruct.' - Darian Leader, author of Why do women write more letters than they post? 'A hugely entertaining account that aims to make you think differently about the machinations of love.' - Time Out 'Mixing philosophy, anthropology and neurobiology with popular culture (citations range from Freud to Lily Allen and the Sugababes) 'The wittiest and wisest book about love of recent years.' - Rowan Pelling
