Love: A Very Short Introduction
Oxford, United Kingdom: Oxford University Press (2015)
Abstract
Do we love someone for their virtue, their beauty, or their moral or other qualities? Are love's characteristic desires altruistic or selfish? Are there duties of love? What do the sciences tell us about love? In this Very Short Introduction, Ronald de Sousa explores the different kinds of love, from affections to romantic love.Author's Profile
