Throughout he amplifies the original Freudian notion by pointing out differences that have taken place since Freud's death. He considers, too, changing cultural influences on love, for example, feminist thought. Fenchel ends with an overview on love, sexuality, and commitment, concluding that love can only be successful if one learns the ways of love and understands the meaning love has for humanity.
