Description: Liesl Schillinger reviews 'A General Theory of Love' by Thomas Lewis, Fari Amini and Richard Lannon.
Three psychiatrists explore the neurobiology of love. By Thomas Lewis, Fari Amini and Richard Lannon. hat is it that makes a long-legged, lynx-eyed young editrix leave a dinner at midnight in New York on an evening when whipping winds take the temperature to 20 below zero to drag her lean, leather-clad frame to a bar where a man with bad intentions may or may not appear? It's neurons, willful neurons, which have programmed her body, heart and mind, in defiance of anything her logic would recommend, to propel her to a place where they can get the electrochemical fix they call love, which her intellect and her friends would call folly. Why do smart neurons make such foolish choices? Because, in the refrain of cads immemorial, it's beyond their control.
