The following books are really good resources for people who are seeking to learn more about polyamory. These are the books that I most often recommend to people who are poly-curious, who are trying polyamory for the first time, or who are interested in opening up an existing monogamous relationship. Experienced polyamorists may pick up some tips from these books, also.
