Description	All About Love: New Visions is a book by bell hooks published in 2000. The book discusses aspects of love in modern society. hooks combines personal anecdotes, psychological and philosophical ideas to make her point. She focuses on romantic love and believes that in American culture men have been socialized to mistrust the value and power of love while women have been socialized to be loving in most situations -- even when their need to receive love goes unmet. Each chapter discusses an aspect of love. First she explains her position and introduces an external work which is primarily about that aspect of love. Then she provides suggestions on how to reverse our cultural training and become more open to giving and receiving love. These aspects are affection, respect, , commitment, trust and care, rather than the customary forms stemming from gender stereotypes, domination, control, ego and aggression.
