Forgiveness is at one and the same time a very ordinary and quite challenging moral phenomenon. This volume brings a diverse set of academic concerns to bear on forgiveness, including neuroscience, research on both victims and perpetrators, legal anthropology, holistic measures of health, theology, literature, and the philosophy of human action.
