Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (p. [103]-111) and index Love in any language -- Love makes the cosmos go 'round -- Love on the (triune) brain -- The altruism of terrorism, the egoism of war -- Why can't we be friends? -- The fundamentals of love -- The science of sex and love -- Can love make progress? We all know the saying, "Love can change the world." When science looks at love, it considers: cosmology, sociobiology, evolutionary psychology, neurology, sex and romance, and the role of emotions as each relates to love. It also explores religious, ethical and philosophical issues, such as virtue, creation ex nihilo, progress, divine action, agape, values, religious practices, pacifism, sexuality, friendship, freedom, and marriage. All affect the ways in which people under-stand each other and interact with one another. In this book, Oord explores these varied dimensions of love, illuminating the love-science symbiosis for both scholars and general readers |
