I recommend the chapter on jealousy. The rest of the book was very hit-or-miss for me.

I didn't go into reading this book but I was pleasantly surprise! The author, Deborah Anapol, has taught me a few things about myself as a poly person. This isn't a how to book, or a book for someone who is new to the lovestyle, it's for people who have experience and want to strengthen their knowledge on the subject. The author, who was a clinical psychologist, did a great job of using case studies to give examples of topics that were discussed. I was surprised that there was a full chapter on jealousy. And the chapter didn't cover the basic, you get jealous and we get jealous.-get over it scenario. Dr. Anapol covered several different things regarding jealousy from a physical, spiritual and cultural standpoint. In my opinion this was my favorite portion of the book, even though I normally don't experience jealousy the chapter provided so much insight to me on my continuing journey and growth.

This a good introduction to the concept of polyamory, for the nerdy and curious.
