estuvo interesante leer este libro porque no es a lo que normalmente estoy acostumbrada y me gustó salirme de los registros de siempre. no está mal aunque tardé un poco en acabar de leerlo. obviamente hay que entenderlo en su contexto histórico y yo, personalmente, no lo enfoqué como si Fromm estuviera diciendo una verdad universal. aún así es disfrutable.

I just can’t do Christian-infused philosophy.

Furthering my quest to recalibrate my data set on what love is, and overriding my garbage inputs, I picked this up. But as other readers have noted, there is a lot that is outdated (publishing in 1956), especially when it comes to homosexuality and gender identity.
Couldn't get past it, and the frequent uses of religious doctrine to back up psychological claims. There are still some universal truths about man's need for connection and to defy the insanity of aloneness , but not a lot more useful information to help me build a theoretical understanding that will serve me in my quest.

Really insightful messages. Though I would argue some parts are outdated.

I’m sure this book was really impressive when it hit the scene, but a book written about love and loving by a man in the 1950s isn’t my ideal reading material. As I always have to do when discussion love is recommend “All About Love” by bell hooks.
