Review
A lovely book, written with grace and love for his subject. . . . White presents a balanced and powerful account of love that incorporates strong emotional connectedness with a moral responsiveness to the needs of the other. White stresses the deep bond between love and self-fulfillment and sees clearly the ways in which this overcomes the false dichotomy between selfishness and altruism. He traces his theme of self-fulfillment through four forms of love--friendship, romantic love, parental love, and love of humanity--and does an excellent job of integrating the contemporary discussion of these issues with his position.--Lawrence M. Hinman
