Publisher's Summary

The renowned psychoanalyst and social philosopher Erich Fromm has helped millions of men and women achieve rich, productive lives by developing their hidden capacities for love. In this astonishingly frank and candid book, he explores the ways in which this extraordinary emotion can alter the whole course of your life.

Most of us are unable to develop our capacities for love on the only level that really counts — a love that is compounded of maturity, self-knowledge, and courage. Learning to love, like other arts, demands practice and concentration. Even more than any other art, it demands genuine insight and understanding.

In this classic work, Fromm explores love in all its aspects - not only romantic love, steeped in false conceptions and lofty expectations, but also love of parents, children, brotherly love, erotic love, self-love, and the love of God.

Love from the psychologist's perspective

Loved it .. despite the fact that it feels like a narration rather than someone reading or storytelling. Except the narrator everything else is eye-opening or should I say ear-opening.

The book has some fascinating insights about human relationships, society, faith, discipline and how they are all related to love, which is essential for human existence.
