This book argues that justice often governs apologies. Drawing on examples from literature, politics, and current events, Cohen presents a theory of apology as corrective offers.

Recenzje

"Andrew I. Cohen has made a significant advance in our understanding of the nature of apologies. He demonstrates, more clearly than anyone before, that apologies are grounded in the demands of justice. As such, he shows that liberal theories of justice have the resources to help address issues of historic injustice." – Andrew Valls, Oregon State University, USA
