«El arte de amar» is the psychology and philosophy essay by Erich Fromm, published by Ediciones Paidós Ibérica in paperback (160 pages, in Spanish).
Fromm argues that loving is not just a feeling but an art that demands knowledge and effort, like music or painting. The work analyses the forms of love (erotic, brotherly, filial and self-love) and relates them to personal maturity, against the fleeting and mechanical view he attributes to contemporary society.
The book belongs to the Contextos / Context collection by Paidós, number 90. The work was originally published in 1956.
Recommended for readers interested in psychology, philosophy and personal development, as well as in the analysis of affective relationships.
