Paper Summary:
This paper explores the concept that love is the emotion, which ascribes to a specific physical and physiological set of body changes. It describes that loves occurs in a person whose pheromones most closely match or please that of another person. The paper answers the basic question, "what is love?" through a series of scientific texts and explains the effects that love-the-emotion has on the physical body.From the Paper:
"What, then, are the "chemicals" which tell the body love is in the air? The first one, released all through a partner's love-life, is known as the "cuddle" hormone. It is called Oxytocin and is released by the hypothalamus gland during childbirth as well as in (smaller) quantities when one spends time with ones loved one. During sexual climax, more oxytocin is released into the bloodstream. Scientists believe that oxytocin helps encourage bonding among adults. The second is a chemical cocktail known as PEA. This stands for Phenylethylamine and is what causes one to fall in "love.""More papers on Love:
