Attached Summary
Is there a science to love?
In this innovative book, psychiatrist, and neuroscientist Amir Levine and psychologist Rachel S. F. Heller reveal how an understanding of attachment theory, the most advanced relationship science that exists today, can help us find and maintain love. Attachment theory forms the basis of many bestselling books on the parent/child relationship, but there has not yet been an accessible guide to what this fascinating science has to tell us about romantic relationships between adults, until now.
Attachment theory owes its origin to the British psychologist and psychoanalyst John Bowlby, who in the 1950s examined the tremendous impact that our first relationships with our parents or caregivers have on the people we become. The discovery that our need to be in a close relationship with one or more individuals is embedded in our genes is also central to attachment theory.
In Attached, Levine and Heller chart how these evolutionary influences continue to shape who we are in our relationships today. According to attachment theory, each person behaves in relationships in one of three different ways:
* Anxious people are often worried about their relationships and tend to worry about their partner’s ability to love them.
* AVOIDING people equate intimacy with a loss of independence and constantly try to minimize closeness.
* SAFE people feel comfortable with intimacy and are generally warm and loving.
The attached readers guide you to determine what style of attachment they and their partners (or potential partners) follow. It also offers readers a lot of advice on how to navigate their relationships more wisely given their attachment style and that of their partner. An insightful look at the science behind love, Attached offers readers a road map to building stronger and more satisfying connections.
