The book explores why people want apologies (and sometimes something more, such as restitution) and why people consider them to be necessary. The authors discuss the reason as partly arising because people feel‘ resentment’ when they have been wronged. They therefore explore what resentment is, and why people feel resentment; recognizing that resentment can be effectively mitigated other than through apologies or like behaviour. In the final chapter, the book offers a proposed outline of a legal framework for apologies by public organizations that meet what the book identifies as cogent forms of institutional and organisational apologies and forgiveness.
