• Introduction 1. The debate about forgiveness 2. The case against forgiveness 3. A third way? 4. The case for forgiveness I: what the psychologists say 5. The case for forgiveness II: meeting the objections 6. The case for forgiveness III: the positive arguments

"The book is superbly written and moves at a brisk pace that keeps up interest and made me want to go on. I didn't need to read this book with a dictionary of philosophy to hand, or wonder what some of the words meant, or try to unravel the syntax of the sentences. The issues are laid out with admirable clarity and balance, and they kept my interest as if I were reading an exciting novel." - Anthony Bash, Durham University, author of Forgiveness and Christian Ethics
