What can the philosophy of knowledge and logic tell us about love? Here two philosophers use their training in arguments and reasoning to uncover the role of ungrounded beliefs when we fall in love.
This not a self-help book, it is a philosophy book. Free of advice, methods and strategies for being successful in love, it does not offer solutions for problems. What it gives us instead is a reading of love as it actually is. The authors illustrate the fallacies of love by drawing on personal experiences, literary characters and two imaginary individuals. They provide examples of ungrounded beliefs in Aesop's Fables, Talking Heads, Cinderella and Don Giovanni and illustrate love as an inexhaustible source of misperceptions, misunderstandings and misconceptions.
By tackling those characteristic and all-too familiar ways in which ungrounded love beliefs arise, the book forces us to question why baseless beliefs are maintained and reinforced, showing us that many love beliefs are built on anything but logic.
