"In a world filled with superficial portrayals of love and ethics, Susi Ferrarello beautifully engages their intricacies. The Ethics of Love pushes the reader to think more deeply about anger, choice, tragedy, unconditionality, and meaning. Ferrarello’s use of case illustrations, classic literature, practical application, and reflective exercises make the book accessible and highly enjoyable. I highly recommend it!"

"Dr Ferrarello's The Ethics of Love is an elegant and meaningful exploration. She uses mythology, philosophy, and relatable case examples interwoven to facilitate an exploration of themes associated with the suffering, pleasure, and power of love. Throughout, the reader becomes acquainted with the universality and nuances of love and the ethical responsibility we all have in our treatment of those who are close to us. Ferrarello's command in depth and breadth of sources and her creativity in bringing them together is a delight. It is a treasure—integrating a rich tapestry of philosophy, myth, and clinical work that is thought-provoking, relatable, and engaging throughout."

"What can we learn from ancient philosophy and, especially, from Greek mythology? A practical way of life. In this extraordinarybook, Susi Ferrarello brings the reader through a journey of myths and persons, human experiences, and philosophical interrogations, in search of the meaning of every form of love. Through the stories of her clients, the author unveils the ethical framework of every affective relationship, recalling not merely the vulnerability of human beings, but also her resilient ability to stand for what matters in life."
