Origin of Humanness in the Biology of Love by Humberto Maturana Romesin

by Humberto M Rowesin

The central concern of this book is us human beings. The authors' basic question 'How is it that we can live in mutual care, have ethical concerns, and at the same time deny all that through the rational justification of aggression?’ The authors answer this basic question indirectly by providing a look into the fundaments of our biological constitution, concentrating on what they term emotioning, that is the flow of emotions in daily life that guides the flow of the systemic conservation of a manner of living. Maturana and Verden-Zoller claim that the fundamental emotion that gave rise to humans as sapient languaging beings was love, and that this remains our fundament even when other emotions become socially prevalent.

I've only finished the Editor's Forward and the Preface and already I'm feeling a shift in my consciousness. This is a revolutionary change in the way we understand evolution and the congruent nature of consciousness and understanding.

Nophoto-u-25x33 bueno este libro sobre el origen de la humanidad en la biología del amor, no lo he revisado, mas pienso qdebe contener temas similares o cierta parte de los que son tratados en "el sentido de lo humano", que habla básicamente del amor como ley incial, ley de leyes y en esta ley se funda el verdadero Reino de Dios..en el reino en el que el amor permite la conservación del hombre en vida mas no en un paraíso prometido
