Co-authored by neuroscientist and psychiatrist Amir Levine and psychologist Rachel S.F. Heller, Attached is a comprehensive and helpful relationship workbook that makes use of the attachment theory—a highly detailed and advanced science for explaining different relationship dynamics. The attachment theory, which was introduced by British psychoanalyst and psychologist John Bowlby, presents the influence of our early relationship with our parents and how it significantly affects how we build intimate relationships later on in life. The attachment theory likewise explains that our desire to be a part of an intimate relationship is rooted in our genetics. In this book, the authors concentrate on the three distinct types of attachment styles that depict how people carry themselves in a relationship, and these are: Anxious, Avoidant and Secure.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Attached is the first book that Amir Levine and Rachel S.F. Heller worked on together.
A neuroscientist and psychiatrist, the book’s author, Amir Levine is zealous about working with patients of different age groups, be they children or adults. When he treated moms with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder during his residency at a therapeutic nursery, he realized the power that possessed by the attachment theory. From there, Levine began using his findings to devise the groundwork for Attached, his revolutionary book which he co-wrote with Rachel F. Heller, an anthropologist, sociologist and fellow psychologist.
Raised in Canada and Israel and having studied at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Levine then went on to complete the residency program at the New York Presbyterian Hospital. Following his graduation from the residency program, he went to Columbia University where he dedicated a few years carrying out neuroscience research. He was mentored by Eric Kandel, a Noble Peace awardee. At present, Dr. Amir Levine resides In
