Description

In Love at Goon Park, Pulitzer Prize-winner Deborah Blum charts a profound cultural shift from how doctors discouraged parents from touching their children to when that belief was overturned, and in doing so proved the emotional and intellectual benefits of touch. Through studying neglect and its life-altering consequences on primates in his lab, Harry Harlow confirmed love's central role in shaping not only how we feel but also how we think. The story of an evolution of both a man and an idea, Love at Goon Park ultimately invites us to examine ourselves and the way we love.
