Create a happy relationship by understanding attachment theory.

It is scientifically explained why some people navigate relationships comfortably, while others constantly struggle. According to psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr. Amir Levine and Rachel Heller, the answer is "Yes." In this book, they tell us that by understanding the adult emotional bond – the most advanced science of relationships today – we can find and maintain love.

Since 1950, attachment theory has suggested that we behave in relationships in three distinct ways:

ANXIOUS individuals often worry about their relationship and tend to be concerned about their partner's ability to love them.

AVOIDANT individuals equate intimacy with the loss of independence and constantly try to reduce closeness.

SECURE individuals feel comfortable with intimacy and are usually warm and affectionate.

Levine and Heller help readers discover their own type of emotional bond as well as that of their (potential) partner, enabling them to create stronger and healthier relationships with the people they love.
