Acknowledgments
Over the recent decades, a number of scholars have contributed to cross-cultural research of love. Numerous references and citations in the book acknowledge their important contributions. Some pioneering researchers were especially substantial and inspirational for love studies in cross-cultural perspectives. Elaine Hatfield is one of such prominent figures in this regard.
