The Structure of Love
Alan Soble
Yale University Press
In this important and insightful new work, Alan Soble analyzes love from a philosophical perspective. Soble focuses on mature love between adults but also explores such topics as sexuality, divine love, parental love, and the relationship of love to hate; and he offers new interpretations of what Plato, Aristotle, and Kierkegaard have written about love and discusses the ideas of contemporary philosophers.
