Why is it important?
Though forgiveness has shown itself to be a significant psychological phenomenon, it has historically been under-studied in psychology or relegated to fields such as theology or sociology. This book takes up forgiveness as a rich and worthy subject matter for rigorous academic examination in the fields of psychoanalysis, Jungian analytical theory, archetypal psychology, and post-Jungian theory.
