Forgiveness and Other Acts of Love

In this widely international bestseller, Stephanie Dowrick re-examines the six great humane values-courage, fidelity, restraint, generosity, tolerance, and forgiveness. At a time when most belief systems seem exhausted or irrelevant, she shows how these qualities, far from being dull or constraining, have immensely far-reaching personal and social benefits. Drawing on both memorable stories from everyday life and her wide knowledge of contemporary psychotherapy and the great mystical traditions, she gives readers the opportunity to find true value in their lives.Dowrick, Stephanie is the author of 'Forgiveness and Other Acts of Love', published 2005 under ISBN 9780140288759 and ISBN 0140288759.
