On Romantic Love
Simple Truths about a Complex Emotion (Philosophy in Action)
Berit Brogaard
Explore the complex aspects of romantic love with this philosophical and psychological book. Can love be rational? Can we choose who to love? Brogaard’s short book presents a new theory of love that combines historical and cutting-edge philosophy with neuroscience. Engaging anecdotes and accessible explanations of the science behind our emotions make this a thought-provoking and entertaining read. Learn about love’s contradictions and how it can be both an emotion and subject to rational control, and discover the processes behind jealousy, attachment, heartbreak, and more.
