“Over a decade after its publication, one book on dating has people firmly in its grip.” —The New York Times We already rely on science to tell us what to eat, when to exercise, and how long to sleep. Why not use science to help us improve our relationships? In this revolutionary book, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr. Amir Levine and Rachel Heller scientifically explain why some people seem to navigate relationships effortlessly, while others struggle. Discover how an understanding of adult attachment—the most advanced relationship science in existence today—can help us find and sustain love. Pioneered by psychologist John Bowlby in the 1950s, the field of attachment posits that each of us behaves in relationships in one of three distinct ways: • Anxious people are often preoccupied with their relationships and tend to worry about their partner's ability to love them back. • Avoidant people equate intimacy with a loss of independence and constantly try to minimize closeness. • Secure people feel comfortable with intimacy and are usually warm and loving. Attached guides readers in determining what attachment style they and their mate (or potential mate) follow, offering a road map for building stronger, more fulfilling connections with the people they love.

It was the most stimulating adventure they had embarked on. The first meeting, the first conversation, the shared dreams, and passions amongst others all pointed to the fact that they had found their perfect match. Even the chemistry between them was apparent to their friends. And they both exchanged vows of undying love, on numerous occasions. They could have sworn that they had beaten the odds of unhappy relationships. Nothing could go wrong, they thought. But things took a different turn, almost suddenly. The slight issues gained prominence and seemingly displaced the butterflies in their belly. And their certainties too! Then the questions flooded in. What went wrong? Is it that what I felt all along wasn't real? Was it love or lust? And they ultimately had to decide what to do with the relationship. More often than not, people emerge from such experiences with scars so big they vow never to venture into relationships again. Over and over again, that story has been told. We've read it in books. We've seen it in movies. Some of us have even lived it. Of course, the characters and the specifics always differ. Still they point to the same problem - a gross misunderstanding of how relationships work. As if those were not bad enough, stories of marriages ending in divorce abound. And they only add to our disillusionment about relationships as a whole. Don't fall for the lamentable adventure... Get your relationship right by getting relationship compatibility right. Set your future on the path of blissfulness and get past the monstrous menace of heartbreaks. Do you need the seventh heaven experience in your relationship? Then, get this awesome book!

It takes all kinds of people to make a world, the expression goes. But maybe it really takes only two kinds. People who put ketchup on their fries, and people who put the ketchup on the side. People who squeeze gently from the bottom, and people who manhandle the toothpaste tube. 2 Kinds of People is the interactive visual personality quiz that’s as much fun as a game. It works by showing two illustrations side by side. If you and your partner pick the same one, score it on the foldout wheel in the back, and move to the next. At the end, the number of matches determines where you fall on the Scale of Compatibility, ranging from mortal enemies to soul mates. There are 85 pairs in all, covering food, home, technology, travel, and more. It’s the perfect icebreaker, a clever way to find out if you and your best friend/date/coworker and/or person you just met in a bar are compatible. Cup or cone? Cash or plastic? Shower or bath? Escalator or stairs? Toilet paper over, or toilet paper under? Like they say, it’s the little things in life that really count.
