Beloved Christian psychologist Dr. James Dobson speaks honestly and openly about what love is and what it isn't, helping couples and dating singles understand the myths and reality of emotions. He addresses the joy and beauty of sex in marriage, and the destruction and heartbreak of sex outside of marriage. A true-or-false quiz, followed by brief discussions of each question and answer, emphasizes and explains the most common misconceptions of love. A learning/discussion section, containing questions and Scripture references to be used individually or in a group setting, follows the discussion on romantic love. Highlighted with callouts and a section entitled the "Interpretations of Impressions," this practical yet hard-hitting book ends with a poignant letter from Dr. Dobson to his beloved wife, Shirley.

This review is from: Romantic Love: How to Be Head Over Heels and Still Land on Your Feet (Kindle Edition)
Dr Dobson does an excellent job. He is known in religious circles, but he also supports his positions with science. This makes his advice equally accessible to people of faith and those who are not. I find his arguments and advice very beneficial for a broad audience and I highly recommend his work.
