This leads to the unraveling of a most mysterious phenomenon known as Limerence, only recently attracting the attention of psychologists worldwide. Beautifully written, Limerence is a fascinating journey of obsessive love, and Hicklin manages to weave historical fact with psychological insight, exploring the limits of devotion and the true meaning of love, from behind the veil of what she exposes as a "most mysterious disease of the mind." -- Susan Wakefield</p><br>
