This book is an account of the psychology of romantic love in the
context of a theory of emotions. The account develops out of
studies in brain psychology and the extension to topics in
process-philosophy, such as the nature of value and belief, and the
central role of feeling in mental process. The approach is
subjectivist, that is, from the internal standpoint, and in this
respect it differs greatly from the externalist and objectivist
trends in modern cognitive science and empiricist philosophy. Love
is the ultimate in value, so that a theory of love is also a theory
of the nature of value and its relation to feeling, belief, and to
drive and desire. The role of intention, reason, and appraisal is
critiqued. The relation to other feelings, such as jealousy, envy,
anger, loss and grief is discussed in terms of a general theory of
emotion and the basis in a process account of the mind/brain state.
