New philosophical essays on love by a diverse group of
international scholars. Topics include contributions to the ongoing
debate on whether love is arational or if there are reasons for
love, and if so what kind; the kinds of love there may be (between
humans and artificial intelligences, between non-human animals and
humans); whether love can explain the difference between
nationalism and patriotism; whether love is an necessary component
of truly seeing others and the world; whether love, like free will,
is "fragile," and may not survive in a deterministic world; and
whether or not love is actually a good thing or may instead be a
force opposed to morality. Key philosophers discussed include
Immanuel Kant, Iris Murdoch, Bernard Williams, Harry Frankfurt, J.
David Velleman, Niko Kolodny, Thomas Hurka, Bennett Helm, Alfred
Mele and Derk Pereboom. Essays also touch on the treatment of love
in literature and popular culture, from Graham Greene's The End of
the Affair to Spike Jonze's movie her.
