by Stephen Post and Jill Neimark
Stephen Post is head of the Institute for Research into Unlimited Love, an organisation that funds and collates love-related studies. In this book, he and his fellow author outline research that shows how people who give to others enjoy rewards that go way beyond just thanks or reciprocity. The book outlines ten different forms of giving, with many beautiful real-life examples. It includes the studies that show how the act of giving improves mood, builds immunity, improves health and increases life expectancy. For each form of giving, there is a questionnaire to test yourself and suggestions about how to improve your score. A lovely combination of feel-good stories, good advice and solid science.
