- Summary
- There are many types of love, including affection and close friendship, but it is eros, or "romantic" love, that has fascinated humanity throughout history, and inspired some of our most iconic works of literature and art. In this "Very Short Introduction" Ronald de Sousa explores the philosophical notion of love. Drawing on a range of literature and the latest research from the scineces, he examines the major ideologies of love and argue that love is far more complex than conventional thought would have us believe. -- from publisher.
