We live in a culture of apology & forgiveness But while there are a few thinkers who are critical of forgiveness as being too supine & extol the virtues of retribution & 'getting even' philosopher & intellectual Martha C Nussbaum criticizes forgiveness from the other side that in the realm of personal relations forgiveness is at its heart inquisitorial & disciplinary In this volume based on her 2014 Locke Lectures Nussbaum paints a startling new portrait that strips the notion of forgiveness down to its Judeo-Christian roots where it was structured by the moral relationship between a score-keeping God & penitent self-abasing & erring mortals The relationship between a wronged human & another is she says based on this primary God-human relationship Nussbaum agrees with Nietzsche in seeing in forgiveness a displaced vindictiveness & a concealed resentment that are ungenerous & unhelpful in human relations She says forgiveness can give aid & comfort to a certain narcissism of resentment that a loving & generous person should eschew-in favor of a generosity that gets ahead of forgiveness & prevents its procedural thoughts from taking place With a wide range of literary & classical references as background Nussbaum pursues her penetrating & wide-ranging exploration of anger & forgiveness from the personal realm into the political as well as into a so-called middle realm where we interact with people & groups who are not our close friends or family A great deal of resentment toward others is in this middle realm & she argues that the Stoics were right-we should try & understand how petty most slights are & avoid anger to begin with ...

This is the definitive autobiography of John Lydon one of the most recognizable icons in the annals of music history As Johnny Rotten he was the lead singer of the Sex Pistols
- the world's most notorious band who shot to fame in the mid-1970s with singles such as ' Anarchy in the UK' & ' God Save the Queen' Via his music & invective he spearheaded a generation of young people across the world who were clamouring for change
- & found it in the style & attitude of this most unlikely figurehead With his next band Public Image Ltd (Pi L) Lydon expressed an equally urgent impulse in his make-up
- the constant need to reinvent himself From their beginnings in 1978 he set the template for a band that continues to challenge & thrive in the 2010s He also found time for making innovative new dance records with the likes of Afrika Baambaata & Leftfield Following the release of a solo record in 1997 John took a sabbatical from his music career into other media most memorably his own Rotten TV show for VH1 & as the most outrageous contestant ever on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! He then fronted the Megabugsseries & one-off nature documentaries & even turned his hand to a series of much loved TV advertisements for Country Life butter Lydon has remained a compelling & dynamic figure
- both as a musician & thanks to his outspoken controversial yet always heartfelt & honest statements as a cultural commentator The book is a fresh & mature look back on a life full of incident from his beginnings as a sickly child of immigrant Irish parents who grew up in post-war London to his present status as a vibrant alternative national hero
