Publisher's summary

understanding

I don't think it was a problem with the book, but with my understanding. This book was deep and dense. A book I read referenced these four levels and I was intrigued and wanted to learn more. Listening to this didn't clear it up for me or help me to come to a greater understanding. I am still interested to understand these four levels of love, but I think I'll have to read someone's summary and interpretation to grasp it.
