Description

Margalit’s work offers a philosophy for our time, when, in the wake of overwhelming atrocities, memory can seem more crippling than liberating, a force more for revenge than for reconciliation. The book draws on millennia of Western philosophy and religion to provide healing ideas for all who care about the nature of our relations to others.
