Mating in captivity: unlocking erotic intelligence

Perel, Esther
Mating in Captivity examines the tension between emotional security, domestic life, and erotic desire in long-term relationships. Drawing on Esther Perel's clinical experience as a psychotherapist, the book explores why sexual desire may diminish even in loving relationships and discusses ways couples can maintain intimacy, passion, curiosity, and erotic connection. The twentieth-anniversary edition includes a new preface in which Perel reflects on the origins of the book and cultural changes since its original publication.

The Love and Dating Game

Paul B. Lowney
Exploring the worlds of love and dating with humor and insight. Some of this book with drawings by Frank Renlie examines love and dating in a humorous and frivolous manner, but other parts reveal love and dating as a crucial and disturbing phenomenon. But whether we approach love with tears or laughter, it is clear that love is the core and central meaning in the human experience. From its passions arise the continuity of life itself - survival of the species. Love can be the most exhilarating and satisfying emotion of all existence, and yet it can also be destructive and painful. Still, no life is complete without it.
