520    Love defines us. It shapes the individual, ensures the 
       preservation of the species, and is the principal subject 
       we - as a culture - choose to examine in our art forms. 
       The experience of being in love is powerful and it 
       inevitably changes how we feel and how we behave. Even 
       when love is normal it is so intense that for thousands of
       years doctors and poets have described love as a kind of 
       madness; however, love can also go wrong. When this 
       happens the consequences for the individual and those 
       around them can be far reaching and in some instances 
       truly astonishing. Lovesickness is not a trivial matter. 
       Unrequited love is a frequent cause of suicide 
       (particularly among the young) and over ten percent of 
       murders are connected with sexual jealousy. In the course 
       of his career, Frank Tallis has treated many fascinating 
       patients, and their stories, told here, are dramatic, 
       bizarre and revealing.
