The Crisis of Love in an Age of Disillusion
Book • 1995
This book examines the problems of intimacy in contemporary Western culture, arguing that cultural myths about love are often arrested in adolescence.

It delves into how traditional romantic love can lead to disillusionment and power struggles within relationships.

Miller suggests that American individualism and unrealistic sexual values contribute to these issues and offers insights on how to address these problems through a more nuanced understanding of love and relationships.
