Smitten is a much-needed exploration of the psychology of infatuation, how to recognize it, and how to move beyond it towards a healthier experience of love. This is a book on limerence — intense longing for someone. Rooted in neuroscience, Tom Bellamy offers practical guidance for those experiencing obsessive love and seeking emotional balance.
Dr Tom Bellamy is a neuroscientist and honorary Associate Professor at the University of Nottingham. After a twenty-five-year research career investigating esoteric aspects of neurophysiology, he now writes about how the fundamental mechanisms of the brain can help us make sense of our behaviour. He blogs at Living with Limerence and Psychology Today.
Rather bravely, he will be in conversation about this issue with the writer Teika Bellamy, to whom he is married.
