El deseo erótico es una potencia fundamental en toda vida humana. Sin embargo, a pesar de que es el responsable de buena parte de nuestras decisiones, raras veces le damos el espacio que merece como tema de reflexión. ¿Acaso nos da miedo mirar ese costado de nosotros mismos al que le debemos tanto placer y tanto dolor? Este libro busca exponer una teoría del amor en sentido amplio, incluyendo en dicho significante al erotismo y al deseo. A partir de autores como Platón, Hegel, Freud y Deleuze, se analiza el amor con la esperanza de que nuevas formas de amar sean posibles.
