Summary

• Archive: $50 $18 - Shyness and Love: Causes, Consequences, and Treatment - Brian G. Gilmartin Shyness & Love covers the only major study conducted to date on social anxiety disorder as it is manifested in informal, unstructured, male/female dating and courtship situations.

• It focuses on the causes both biomedical as well as situational of love-shyness and the consequences for those afflicted with it.

• Gilmartin also discusses promising treatment modalities and what schools and communities can do to prevent severe love-shyness from developing in the first place.Shyness & Love examines the early family life as well as the peer group interactions of love-shy men.

• The book provides many statistical comparisons between the sampled love-shys and a comparison group of non-love-shy males of normal (but not superior) social self-confidence levels.

• These statistical comparisons allow for some informed speculations regarding the numerous interacting causes that underlie social phobia in informal, unstructured, heterosexual social situations.
