The New York TimesTony Jack, the Elmer G. Beamer-Hubert H. Schneider Professor in Ethics and an instructor at Weatherhead School of Management, highlighted that the core idea of the 1956 classic book The Art of Loving is that love is not just an emotion but a practice—something cultivated through effort and commitment. His assessment aligns with the author’s argument that love requires active engagement rather than passive experience, reinforcing the book’s emphasis on love as a disciplined and ethical pursuit.
