ABSTRACT

The editors' interest in bringing together a book on forgiveness stemmed from their differences. Unlike other books in the ®eld, we wanted one which would highlight different perspectives on forgiveness and how this relates to practice. We were interested in whether issues varied in different contexts and with different client groups. Many of the contributors to the book offer both a perspective on forgiveness and a valuable insight into their area of practice based on years of experience as a practitioner or researcher.
