Recensioner i media

“Victor C. de Munck’s Romantic Love in America promises to introduce the reader to ‘the love and sex lives of fifteen people’ two of whom are polyamorous, eight of whom are straight, and five gay. This fascinating volume delivers on this promise and does so in a theoretical context which incorporates both cognitive and evolutionary frameworks. An absorbing read for those interested in the experiences and conceptualizations of individuals who experience romantic love or who indulge in a variety of sexual encounters with or without the justification of love.”
