Jealousy

"Jealousy Is Unmistakable. It hurts. It affects our body before it reaches our mind. But where does jealousy come from? Why are some people slaves to this malady while others seem oblivious? Marcianne Blevis investigates the unsuspected origins of this common form of madness. Through ten cases told as if they were short stories, she examines all the facets of jealousy and comes to the conclusion that this extraordinary passion is nothing less than a strategy of survival - an antidote to despair - at a moment of crisis when our sense of identity is put into Question. Jealousy can be triggered by an innocuous sign - a confusing sentence, a bouquet of flowers, a telephone not answered - all clues to a much older and deeper drama than the one at hand."--Jacket.
