[ 4.0 stars ] "I purchased this book after reading the article on infidelity in Time Magazine where it was cited. I guess I am not accustomed to reading books written by social scientists because he keeps reciting his thesis (and therefore, his conclusions) over and over again, like a mantra. That is my only complaint. Otherwise, well-reasoned, backed by research, with a lot of interesting conclusions, and it ex ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "The title perfectly captures the childish nature of American romance right now. Because, as the author points out, we have the highest rate of divorce and remarriage in the world.

Americans step on and off the carousel of intimate partnerships" ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "The author focuses on 2 themes here - the high value Americans place on marriage and the high value we place on independence. His main point is that these values are rather contradictory. He sees that as explaining our rather unique approach to marriage in the industrialized world - i.e., the marriage churn, or merry go-round, of cohabit-marry-divorce-repeat.The big issue here, of course, is the ..."
