Synopsis

The Ultimate Book on Love

When your lover lays their head on your chest and says I love you, are they telling you how they feel or that they will be there for you whenever and wherever you need them? 

Are they saying I’m overjoyed, please don’t make it stop, or that you are worth all the riches of the world and more?

Do they mean that they feel closer to heaven than earth right now, or are they proud that you are theirs and they are yours?

Love has two meanings:

• How I feel
• I am committed.

We want our lover to mean both when they say I love you. But do they, and can they?

Unlike other books on love, Voyage to the Heart: The Nature of Love explores these two meanings, and in doing so gives you the tools to explore and improve your loving relationships.

What you will find in Voyage to the Heart: The Nature of Love:

• Introducing love – A brief background answering what is real love and why do people love
• The three-pillar-model of love - A specific diagram and description showing the nature of love in a simple and comprehensible form
• Unified love – An explanation of how every type of love shares the same basic elements
• Romanticism – A description of modern romanticism as a backdrop to romantic love
• Being in love – The main challenges lovers face in romantic love (fidelity vs infidelity, trust vs jealousy, honesty vs lies, selfishness vs selflessness)
• Animate love - A rollcall and the characteristics of the interpersonal loves
• Inanimate love – A rendition of love between people and things
• Religious love – A full account of Christian love.

What to expect from this book

Voyage to the Heart: The Nature of Love, is a comprehensive description of love based on the works of philosophers Prof Irving Singer and Plato.

Cameron believes love can be expressed as either a feeling or a commitment. He explains the nature of love through well-known examples in modern films, music and literature showing how feelings and commitment evolve as emotions and consciousness combine. By a deep understanding that goes beyond the day-to-day of dating advice found in other books, you reach the soul of real love where you will be more effective in managing and improving all your loving relationships. This is where you reach the realm of long-lasting relationships. Voyage to the Heart is, therefore, the ultimate in love life advice as it shares what is real love in marriage and other relationships.

Extract from Voyage to the Heart: The Nature of Love

Rhianna’s song We All Want Love alludes to a side of love seldom noticed, but which we know intuitively is there. The reason we fail to discern it is because popular media such as TV, film, song and literature portray the message of love as a feeling. The message has us push aside anything other than feelings when thinking of love, but we should sit up and take note. When the fireworks of falling in love are over and all you want in life is to be loved, what is it you really want? To be valued by the one who says they love you; to have them with you, caring for you; to know they are proud to call you theirs to the point of being zealously protective. And why? Because being together is a good experience, not just for you but for them.
