Prolific author ( Lisa and David ; Overcoming Indecisiveness ) and columnist for Ladies' Home Journal and McCall's , psychiatrist Rubin here offers observations on the nature of love. Short meditations (most one page, some a sentence) on the attributes of love ("Loving is even more important than being loved") and its enemies, which he calls "corrosives" and which include jealousy, pride, secretiveness and mastery, support Rubin's indisputable view that loving--God, parents, children, mates, friends--is our most redeeming activity. Optimistic and encouraging, these reflections seem like thoughts penned at free moments; unfortunately, the wisdom is blandly unspecific, with only occasional references to an individual or incident giving weight and substance. Full of compassion and conviction, Rubin's sage-sounding observations are soothing, but they are also superficial and vague.
