The Seven Natural Laws of Love
As we search for love in our lives, most of us often feel as though we're on a journey without a compass-or even worse, with a faulty map. We are programmed from our earliest childhood experiences with scores of assumptions about love. We're taught male and female roles, and ways of seeing ourselves, that may lead to separation, fear and mistrust. These many fallacies and misconceptions lead us to associate love with disappointment and pain.In The Seven Natural Laws of Love, Dr. Deborah Anapol gives us a warm, simple and universal guide to the principles that are common to all loving relationships. Drawing from the stories of the thousands of individuals and couples she has counseled in her workshops and private practice, from her own personal struggles and victories, and from sacred texts, Dr. Anapol distills love down to its basic essentials. Based on real-world observations, she identifies the seven laws that flow naturally from the true nature of love, and shows how we can apply these to our lives. Her warmth, humor, utter honesty,

Polyamory in the 21st Century
Unlike other books on this topic, Polyamory in the 21st Century weaves together research and facts to provide an informed and impartial analysis of polyamory as a lifestyle and as a movement, and to place it in a psychosocial as well as an historical context. Anecdotes and personal experiences allow the reader to develop a better understanding of polyamory and the people who practice and enjoy it. Anapol addresses the practical, the utopian, and the shadow sides of this intriguing, mysterious, yet often threatening lifestyle. It honestly addresses difficult issues such as the nature of commitment without exclusivity, balancing personal needs with loyalty to a partner, evaluating beliefs about love and relationship, the impact of polyamory on children, and the challenges that arise when one partner wants monogamy and another prefers polyamory. Without judgement, she explores this increasingly common practice, and reveals the true nature of a lifestyle that many do not understand.

Understanding Non-Monogamies
Most social scientific work on intimate relationships has assumed a monogamous structure, or has considered anything other than monogamy only in the context of 'infidelity'. Yet, in recent years there has been a growing interest among researchers and the public in exploring various patterns of intimacy that involve open non-monogamy. This volume gathers contributions from academics, activists, and practitioners throughout the world to explore non-monogamous relationships. Featuring both empirical and theoretical pieces, contributors examine the history and cultural basis of various forms of non-monogamy, experiences of non-monogamous living, psychological understandings of relationship patterns, language and emotion, the discursive construction of mono-normativity as well as issues of race, class, disability, sexuality and gender. This volume will be of interest to academics and practitioners working in the social sciences and anyone who is seeking greater insight into the intricacies of non-monogamous relationships.
