Dr. Sheldon Cholst, a psychiatrist, provides answers for such questions as: Why do over 50% of Marriages Fail?; Why is Love so difficult to obtain & maintain?; Why does Nature want us to make poor choices of mates?; & how can we change Nature & find love? His studies reveal that Natural Selection encourages defective judgement in mating relationships in order to promote increased variety in offspring. This book tells how & why Evolution developed as a totalitarian philosophy that limits individual freedom & love relationships for the theoretical benefits to the species that was desirable in the past but is now only antiquated & useless, & serves to lessen human capacity for love life. Love occurs where two people can, but do not hurt each other, two humans who "don't bug each other" at least 90% of the time (on the average). Nature fears this, for this means choosing mates with similar behavior patterns & the consequent danger of cloning rather than diversity. The book shows how to determine, in advance, significant personality characteristics to make for a loving, happy relationship that lasts. Nature wants humans to "struggle for existence" without love & happiness & this book shows how to change the way we are subconsciously programmed. "The strength of the book is in the case material & in giving people a longer perspective than many of them have--& in the fact that he is willing to stick his neck out & define his terms, & suggest answers to some of the down to earth questions they ask him."--Elaine Morgan, British TV Dramatist & author The Descent of Woman. The book can be found at or ordered from bookstores, or from Beau Rivage Press, 7 East 14th Street (Suite 1112), New York, NY 10003.Colst, Sheldon is the author of 'Finding Love in a Cold World' with ISBN 9780931174094 and ISBN 0931174090.
