A discussion of the book The Art of Loving by Erich Fromm.
The Art of Loving by Erich Fromm argues that one of the core problems we face as humans is that of separateness. The solution, he suggests, is unity, achieved through love - not merely a feeling, but an art, the result of the active, productive orientation of one’s whole character. Fromm suggests that, as with any art, learning to love begins with understanding the theory, followed by mastering the practice. The book starts with the theory of love and concludes with steps toward mastering its practice.
