The School of Life

A practical, philosophical guide to understanding and overcoming heartbreak. 

Everyone experiences heartbreak at some point in their life. Advice can be heard to receive with a broken heart, and it tends to focus on letting time do the healing. This consoling and encouraging guide from The School of Life presents a refreshing perspective on heartbreak, arguing that a more nuanced understanding of our pain can help us along the path to healing. 

Through history, psychology, and a little philosophy, Heartbreak teaches us how our responses to abandonment are formed, what the best way to think about an ex might be, and how to envision future relationships when we are in the midst of despair. We come away feeling less alone, consoled that our suffering will have an end, and intrigued by the endless subtleties of relationships.

A PRACTICAL GUIDE: • to understanding and overcoming heartbreak. 
PART OF THE SCHOOL OF LIFE'S 'LOVE' SERIES: • focusing on the joys and sorrows of relationships. 
A PHILOSOPHICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL APPROACH: • to life's innumerable heartbreaks.

Heartbreak

Part of The School of Life's Love series, Affairs delves into the question of affairs and why they happen so often

One in four people will be involved in an affair during their lifetime. Rather than condemning affairs as morally corrupt, this book helps us understand them.

Society tells us that affairs are unequivocally bad. Our culture casts those who engage in them as monsters, and their victims as deserving of unending sympathy. But most of us will be involved in an affair during our lifetimes. This book ventures beyond the cultural caricatures and provides psychological context for this entirely common occurrence. This book seeks to help us through affairs, offering couples a better understanding of each other's motivations and moods-and the practical tools needed to save a relationship.

PRACTICAL ADVICE ON AFFAIRS: • and on dealing with the aftermath of an affair.
WHY DO AFFAIRS HAPPEN?: • historical and psychological framework to help us understand affairs-both the lead up, and the aftermath.
A FRESH TAKE ON INFIDELITY: • and how it impacts our lives.
PART OF THE SCHOOL OF LIFE'S LOVE SERIES: • focusing on the joys and sorrows of relationships.

Affairs

The definitive guide to arguments-and how to argue, better

Sex, money, in-laws, finances, the laundry on the floor…

Every couple argues. In fact, arguments-whether trivial or significant-are woven into the very fabric of romantic relationships. Most arguments stem from the disconnect between the message we want to send ("I need you to love me, know me, agree with me") and the manner in which we deliver it (with accusations, sulking, put-downs, sarcasm, even exaggerated gesticulations and forceful F-yous!),

A bad argument is nothing more than a failed attempt to communicate. By taking a close look at the most common arguments, The School of Life experts offer practical ideas on how to avoid conflict and improve communication between partners. This book teaches us why arguments happen, what their symptoms are, and how to resolve them effectively.

THE 20 MOST COMMON ARGUMENTS: • and how to use them as a catalyst for growth.
PART OF THE SCHOOL OF LIFE'S LOVE SERIES: • focusing on the joys and sorrows of relationships.

Arguments

A guidebook to the joys and anxieties of romantic love - and the key to finding a long term partner. 

This little book teaches us about the history of dating, the best way to discuss our past on our date, what questions to ask a new partner, and how to learn from a bad date. Both heartfelt and perceptive, it provides us with an indispensable road map to the varied, sometimes delightful, sometimes daunting realties of dating. 

Dating might seem like a trivial and relatively inconsequential part of love, but it is in fact the key to finding a lasting relationship. Dating allows us to explore some of the biggest themes of romantic love; how to know if someone is right for us; how soon to settle and how long to search; how to be at once honest and seductive; how to say "no" if a situation doesn't feel right. The tone and practical advice in this little book never minimizes the agony, joys, and confusions of our dating days and nights but offers solace to the weary: there is a partner out there for all who seek. 

A PRACTICAL GUIDE: • to dating in the modern world. 
PART OF THE SCHOOL OF LIFE'S 'LOVE' SERIES: • focusing on the joys and sorrows of relationships. 
ADVICE AND GUIDANCE: • on how to make the most of our dating years.

Dating

There is no more joyful or troublesome area of our lives than love. From adolescence onward, it is rare to go for any sustained length of time without some sort of fascinating or devilish new problem emerging around relationships. The Love Series by The School of Life aims to be like an ideal friend around the dilemmas of the heart. Each title zeroes in on one of the central issues we’re liable to confront—from dating to heartbreak, from affairs to arguments. What unites the books is their combination of psychological insight, humanity, and warmth: they lend us the advice and comfort we need to find the happiness we deserve.
