<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>We all know love matters. but in this groundbreaking book positive emotions expert Barbara L. Fredrickson shows us how much, by giving us an entirely new way of understanding and appreciating it. More than happiness and even optimism, love holds the key to improving our mental and physical health as well as lengthening our lives and deepening our personal experience. Using research from her own lab, Fredrickson redefines love not as a stable behemoth, but as micro-moments of connection between people--even strangers. She demonstrates that our capacity for experiencing love can be measured and strengthened in ways that improve our health and longevity. Finally, she introduces us to informal and formal practices to unlock love in our lives, generate compassion, and even self-soothe. Rare in its scope and ambitious in its message, Love 2.0 will reinvent how you look at and experience our most powerful emotion.--From publisher description.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Todos hemos escuchado la expresión "el poder del amor". Sin embargo, en este libro Barbara Fredrickson le da un nuevo y más profundo significado a estas palabras. Para la autora, el amor es la clave para mejorar la salud mental y física, así como para alargar nuestra vida. Ello se desprende de sus investigaciones clínicas, las cuales muestran que el amor (entendido no como ese sentimiento arrebatado de raíz romántica, sino como los "momentos de conexión significativa entre las personas") es capaz de producir resultados sorprendentes sobre nuestro cuerpo y nuestra psique. <p/><i>We have all heard the expression "the power of love."
