In this groundbreaking book Stephanie Dowrick reconsiders the six great humane virtues that can literally transform the way we see ourselves and others; the way we meet and move through difficulties or grief; the way that we can newly appreciate and treasure our own and others' gift of life.
Starting with the essential quality of courage, Stephanie Dowrick also unpicks and makes newly relevant the timeless qualities of fidelity, restraint, generosity, tolerance and - finally - forgiveness.
None of these transformative qualities, as she shows, are learned in the abstract. Until they are brought to life through daily existence they remain nothing but high ideals. But when lived, and especially when lived in the grit of difficult or challenging moments, they are profoundly life giving and supportive.
Using a range of stories including her own, together with a rare breadth of psychological and spiritual experience and insight, Stephanie Dowrick offers a book that can illuminate some of life's toughest questions and restore your faith in what really matters.

If I could give this book more then five stars, I believe that would still be an understatement to the emmense treasure house of wisdom that will profoundly effect any heart/mind open enough to allow healing guidance that is based in the human virtues that all of us possess and all struggle to work on strengthening.This is a very personal statement to make, and is not said lightly.
I feel very deeply both intellectually and emotionally about the profound impact the privledge of reading her text has and will continue to have on my own world.
This book is a treasure of literature that should be read by any who seek to live a more tranquil, focused and meaningful life!!!

Forgiveness Other Acts of Love edition by Stephanie Dowrick SelfHelp eBooks Reviews
I read this book for a bookclub. I found it very insightful and thought provoking. Each chapter considers a virtue and what it means in terms of personal growth and love.
We are using it for a book study and we are loving it.
As a minister, I read at least one non-fiction book per month. I can say without hesitation that this is the most wonderful and heart-touching book I have found. Stephanie Dowrick addresses forgiveness as well as courage, restraint, fidelity and several other topics using her insights along with pertinent quotes from Eastern masters and people she has met along the way. You must read this book!
A beautifully written book. Compassionate, soulful and intelligent.
Ms Dowrick's philosophies and Unitarianism talk to the heart. I have gained much more understanding on the right way to approach life and learn from the lessons presented, and have thoroughly enjoyed her arguments (is that the right word?) for acceptance of events and postural activities of people concerned only at the ego level.
Namaste!
Lots of wisdom and honesty in this book . . . and challenges!
I have returned to read this book so many times my copy is very worn and underlined. My purchase was to give the book as a gift to a friend. The author's writing style is very inviting, and I love the manner in which she weaves personal stories with mythology, philosophy, psychology and cultural beliefs. The subject matter is very thought provoking, and could be too heavy in the wrong hands, but Ms. Dowrick does a wonderful job keeping the reader engaged. The other nice point about this book is that the author organizes her chapters around the individual "humane virtues" of courage, fidelity, restraint, generosity, tolerance and forgiveness; so it is very easy to pick up the book and read about any one of the virtues at any point in time.
If I could give this book more then five stars, I believe that would still be an understatement to the emmense treasure house of wisdom that will profoundly effect any heart/mind open enough to allow healing guidance that is based in the human virtues that all of us possess and all struggle to work on strengthening.
This is a very personal statement to make, and is not said lightly.
