While research-based knowledge of love and relationships remains piecemeal, patchy, and dispersed across many publication outlets, the volume addresses these challenges by providing a common platform for researchers to look beyond their disciplinary boundaries and contribute by making the scholarly mosaic of love knowledge more comprehensive. The book presents love and relationship studies from multidisciplinary and international perspectives, compiling a collection of chapters on the diversity of love and love-related topics across various fields of science and practice.

This first volume in a new series from the International Institute of Love Studies compiles diverse research on love and relationships worldwide. The volume presents a valuable collection of love studies, beginning with foundational conceptual analyses in psychological, linguistic, and anthropological data. It progresses into the social and cultural dimensions of love-related experiences, concluding with a deep dive into the psychological complexities of the modern experiences involved in love and love-related relationships.

This volume is an essential resource for researchers and practitioners who are interested in understanding the diversity of multidisciplinary and international perspectives on love research. The book paves the way for cross-disciplinary and international understanding, as well as future cross-cultural collaboration between researchers from around the world and across disciplines.
