Reviews
“Its overall aim is to contribute to the renewal of British character and virtues in the context of family, education and the professions. … there is much in this book which is profoundly illuminating about human relationships.” (Ann Loades, Theology, Vol. 119 (5), September-October, 2016)
'Kenneth Wilson stresses the personally ameliorative character of gratitude: the emotion's ability to transform us by a happy self-transcendence and by binding giver and receiver in a benevolent relationship. He astutely finds the Christian theological framework, with its message of a gracious, compassionate, and forgiving Creator at the ground of our being, to be an extraordinarily fitting foundation for living a life of gratitude.' - Robert Roberts, Baylor University, USA
