Beschreibung:
This collection explores the controversial and perhaps even abject idea that evils, large and small, human and natural, may have a central positive function to play in our lives. For centuries a concern of religious thinkers from the Christian tradition, very little systematic work has been done to explore this idea from the secular point of view.
The only collection of its kind that explores the idea that evil is necessary for goodness from the secular point of view
