Description: "With the abundance of dating strategies, technologies, and services available on the market, is it any easier to find love in this day and age? In this report from the front lines of the dating world, Stacy Kravetz samples the merchandise and discovers that - impressive technological advances aside - finding true love is still never as simple as it may seem." "Drawing on interviews with a host of men and women currently grappling with finding a mate, and from her own undercover experiences out in the playing field, Kravetz explores what our dating lives reveal about us and our culture. And all the while, she captures how - though the landscape of love is forever changing - the human heart remains a wildly mysterious thing."--Jacket.
