One Body

Exploring the nature of romantic love, this philosophical work emphasizes the pursuit of union between two individuals as one body, drawing inspiration from St. Thomas Aquinas. Pruss distinguishes romantic love from other forms by its unique focus on deep biological union, particularly in the context of reproduction. The book delves into the implications for marriage and addresses contentious ethical issues, including love's relationship to sex and commitment, contraception, same-sex activity, and reproductive technology, offering well-reasoned insights for Christian readers.
