The very idea horrifies everyone, including ardent horticulturalist Lavinia Harlow, whose own name has been put forth for membership by the provoking Marquess of Huntly. These Mountain Men are waiting for their special soulmate to come along and heat things up. The small, isolated town known for its yearly icy swim is overflowing with hunky, lonely men. And the nights, well, they’re long and frigid. Polar Bear, Alaska’s days are short and chilly.

What was once hatred has turned into an attraction I’m not sure I can deny, not now that he’s got me right where he’s always wanted me.ĭo I give into what my body wants, or do I fight him like I’ve been doing from the moment we met? The man I hate with a passion saved me, and now I owe him and he’ll never let me forget it. The competition between us was fierce, and even though we’d been out of school for over a decade, Chance Reed was still always trying to one-up me. Much to his disappointment, I was always the winner. In high school, he was always trying to one-up me either in class or out on the ice. Everything about him rubbed me the wrong way and still does. The biography of both a man and an idea, The Measure of Love is a powerful and at times disturbing narrative that will forever alter our understanding of human relationships.Įver since kindergarten, I’ve hated Chance. The more children experience affection, he discovered, the more curious they become about the world: Love makes people smarter. His work sparked a psychological revolution. Paradoxically, his darkest experiments may have the brightest legacy, for by studying 'neglect' and its life-altering consequences, Harlow confirmed love's central role in shaping not only how we feel but also how we think. Pursuing the idea that human affection could be understood, studied, even measured, Harlow (1905-1981) arrived at his conclusions by conducting research-sometimes beautiful, sometimes horrible-on the primates in his University of Wisconsin laboratory. In this meticulously researched and masterfully written book, Pulitzer Prize-winner Deborah Blum examines the history of love through the lens of its strangest unsung hero: a brilliant, fearless, alcoholic psychologist named Harry Frederick Harlow.
