"Why We Love", by Helen Fisher -- I wrote a book review when it was first published.

That is an encouraging review. May I take this to be a personal recommendation?

When you say recommendation, if you mean I learned some new things from the book, yes. I'm interested in reading about the latest studies related to mental events as electrical and chemical processes, or results of brain structure.

There was a cool article in newsweek about this and other emotions, I can't remember when... I just looked around my living space and I think it was tossed. It must've been within the last two months. I'll see what I can find online.
