Wellness Book Group: All About Love

*New Rescheduled Date for September Book Discussion*

The Wellness Book Club provides an opportunity to read selections that promote and encourage practicing wellness in our daily living. Copies of the books are available for checkout at Salina Public Library.

All About Love offers radical new ways to think about love by showing its interconnectedness in our private and public lives. In eleven concise chapters, hooks explains how our everyday notions of what it means to give and receive love often fail us, and how these ideals are established in early childhood. She offers a rethinking of self-love (without narcissism) that will bring peace and compassion to our personal and professional lives, and asserts the place of love to end struggles between individuals, in communities, and among societies. Moving from the cultural to the intimate, hooks notes the ties between love and loss and challenges the prevailing notion that romantic love is the most important love of all.
