Description: Suffering is a philosophical problem, but it is much more. It is deeply personal. Why is this happening to me and you? How can I respond to friends and family in pain and loss, to people in my care? Richard Rice guides readers through the most significant approaches that have been used to make sense of suffering in order to help readers find a response that is both intellectually satisfying and personally authentic.
