Description
Book SynopsisIf Western philosophy has claimed to be a love of wisdom, it has forgotten to become a wisdom of love. Asking the question: How can we love each other? Irigaray presents an exploration of desire and the human heart.
Trade Review'Irigaray's work is always dazzling, surprising and unexpected. No other thinker of Irigaray's generation has her range, insight and originality. No other thinker has managed to illuminate the challenge and the mystery that the other, the other of sexual difference, brings to all encounters, and to all knowledges. In The Way of Love Irigaray opens up philosophy to the mystery of sexual difference, a mystery inscribed in but covered over in all of Western thought.' Elizabeth Grosz
