Description
Have you ever searched for the meaning of love…on the Internet? If your answer is yes, you’re not alone. Every day one million people ask Google for the definition of love. This uncertainty stems from cultural shifts that have radically transformed views about love, intimacy, and sexuality. It’s time to restructure old-fashioned perspectives and develop a deeper understanding of what it means to love someone—and ourselves—in the modern world.
In Cupid on Trial—What We Learn About Love When Loving Gets Tough (Foxford International Books and Media, LLC, October, 2018) relationship therapist Dr. Brian Jory explores real couples (their names have been changed) as they struggle through love without an instruction manual. Dr. Jory tackles contemporary challenges that didn’t exist in our parents’ generation— including sexual harassment, social media impact, and same-sex relationships.
Readers are brought to the city of Lovejoy—which may be a fictional setting, but the couples we meet are authentic and real. Combining relatable stories with research-based analysis, Dr. Jory goes beyond 'surface intimacy problems' and provides fresh ideas for navigating the minefields of modern love.
