Jr. Worthington: Forgiveness and Reconciliation, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The second edition of Forgiveness and Reconciliation offers a comprehensive review of the field of forgiveness, with a focus on reconciliation through integration of cutting-edge scientific research with clinical applications for a wide range of contexts.

Written by one of the leading authorities on the topic, Dr. Everett L. Worthington, Jr., consolidates the theory and evidence behind the psychology and processes of forgiveness, drawing on biopsychosocial and cognitive aspects. The book discusses the practical applications for forgiveness in psychotherapy, moving from an updated consideration of the role of emotion and personality to a renewed focus on cultural and contextual factors. It also proposes a stress-and-coping theory of reconciliation that assists reconciliation in couples, organizations, and wider society. Chapters cover a wide range of areas including societal and intergroup forgiveness, social justice, interpersonal forgiveness, and ways in that forgiveness may be integrated with other psychotherapy models in a variety of contexts, such as couple and group therapy.

With clinical examples and interventions woven throughout*,*this practical resource will be of interest to researchers, clinicians, and students alike.
