Why do we love? The nature of love and its chemistry

"Love" Shakespeare asks himself contemplating. The great poet was not the first to wonder, I imagine that our ancestors pondered that question millions of years ago, while gathered around the fire in their tents, or while lying on the ground watching the stars. In this book, I try to answer this question which appears superficial without an answer. Several things motivated me to do so, I loved and gained, I loved and lost. And certainly I have experienced the joy of romantic love as well as its pains. And above all, I believe that this wild emotion is the cornerstone of human social life. Because the human being, who lived in any place and time, must have experienced the feelings of ecstasy that romantic love brings just as he experienced its heartbreaks. Perhaps the most important thing is that a clearer understanding of this violent phenomenon may help find a way toward emotion.
