Explorations in Love and Sex

Mehr zum Buch

"Beginning with a discussion of Kant, Schopenhauer, and others about the morality of sex and the morality of compassion, Explorations in Love and Sex offers a panoramic view of the philosophy of love from its beginnings in Plato to the present. It examines the nature and limitations of sexual pluralism and elaborates on Irving Singer's earlier ideas about appraisal and bestowal. The book takes both a philosophical and historical approach and is also addressed to the lay reader who wants to understand the curious set of emotions called love."--BOOK JACKET.
