Review of Learn to Love: Guide to Healing Your Disappointing Love Life
A person's love life is not only what is visible in terms of the people he has loved and loves. It is also what is inside of him that shapes and determines the kind of relationships he will form.
The book Learn to Love by Thomas Jordan is an effort to fill in the glaring gap concerning the emotion of love, how the relationships we form are as a result of the things we've learned and experienced with other people, and whether or not the relationships we form are healthy enough to nurture and sustain the love we feel when we fall in love.
The author is a skilled psychologist and psychoanalyst. He also has had a lot of experiences with different couples, the book is drawn not just from the depth of his wisdom and research but also from his interactions and experiences with different couples. The book exposes a lot of facts about relationships and issues that couples face without knowing. It also offers solutions and applicable steps on how to solve those problems and build a stable and healthy love relationship.
I must commend the author's sacrifice in researching the facts he included in the book. It is clear that the information in these pages of this book was collected from his years of clinical research, and experience with different patients. Also the quotes from renowned authors and references to other books is further proof that the author put in a lot of effort in compiling this book. And hence those efforts should be applauded.
What I love most about the book is the fact that he shared his personal experiences with his family and the different partners that he has had relationships with. The author dedicated an entire chapter to citing examples from his own personal life, the challenges he faced in his love relationship and how he overcame them. It made it easy for me to see the points he was trying to make in the book and relate them to my personal life. According to him, "I figured the best way to give my readers a clear and understandable example of how our Unlearning Method can transform a love life is to use my own love life as an illustration."
There's absolutely nothing that I dislike about the book.
It is a great book and was professionally edited. I only found one error in the whole book. I'd give it a four out of four stars. It is a guide for love relationships, and a must read for everyone; for those that are married, in a dating relationship and single people.
