A manifesto on love in the modern age.

What The Reviewers Say

Andrew Stark,
The Wall Street Journal
Rosenbaum certainly scores some points.
Sophia Stewart,
The Atlantic
Behind In Defense of Love is a stubbornly single-minded impulse to accept love’s power, as well as a certain piety.

Publishers Weekly
Defending love as an experiential phenomenon, Rosenbaum criticizes its misrepresentations.

Kirkus
Readers who don’t share [Rosenbaum's] outrage may find his response overwrought.
