What is Love?

 

We're all familiar with love---our culture is saturated with references to it. But what is it exactly? Is it just a matter of the mind? Is it nature’s clever way of promoting selfish interests? Is there anything transcendent about it? We've invited four experts from a diverse set of disciplines---biology, psychology, theology, and philosophy---for a conversation on what this all-important concept is, and on how the difficult work of loving others is realized.

Speakers include geneticist Praveen Sethupathy (Cornell University), psychologist Carrie Bedrow (Hope College), theologian Lisa Sung (Mundelein Seminary), and our moderator, philosopher Steve Brown (Ohio State).
