  “Secure Love” explores the intricate interplay between attachment styles and romantic satisfaction, a relationship dynamic rooted deeply in our earliest connections with caregivers. Delving into the latest research on love and attachment theory, this book offers a compelling examination of how early attachment patterns shape adult romantic relationships.  
  Through an accessible exploration of historical and contemporary studies, “Secure Love” unveils how the six “critical” areas of romantic relationships can predict attachment styles that often influence a couple’s happiness. By understanding these patterns, readers can learn to navigate the complexities of their attachment styles and enhance their capacity to form meaningful, fulfilling bonds. 
  Each chapter of “Secure Love” builds on this foundation: first, it outlines the attachment theory and how it interrelates with love’s capacity, and then it presents research findings on adult attachment styles and their impacts on couple satisfaction.

  Godless Citizens in a Godly...

  From colonial times into the twentieth century, our laws and court cases ignored atheism, assuming that all good Americans were religious. Americans came to associate atheism with radical social philosophies that advocated violence—especially anarchism and communism. Avowed nonbelievers were derided, even the famous patriot Thomas Paine. Only in the twentieth century, with the passage of laws allowing for conscientious objection to war, did nonbelief enter debates about religious liberty. Still, today every one of the fifty states has God written into its constitution, with eight requiring a belief in God for holding public office. God is everywhere in American public life: on our currency, in the Pledge of Allegiance, and in the national motto. R. Laurence Moore and Isaac Kramnick explore both God's omnipresence and the dramatic rise in nonbelievers that has led to an "atheist awakening" intent on holding the country to its secular principles.
