Attraction and Attachment

Understanding Styles of Relationships

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Here is a fascinating exploration of the powerful forces of attachment and attraction that determine the formation and styles of couples' relationships. What factors attract one person to another? What determines whether or not a healthy relationship is formed? As therapists know, there is much in this world that passes for love but is really the result of leftover dependency needs and unresolved attachment issues. Attraction and Attachment: Understanding Styles of Relationships examines issues of attachment in relationships, discusses the validity of the concept of codependency as one aspect of attachment, and explores various aspects of attraction.
