      abstract = {Katchadourian first explores the ways in which guilt  functions within individual lives and intimate  relationships, looking at behaviors that typically induce  guilt in both historical and modern contexts. He then turns  to the way the capacity for moral judgments develops within  the individual lives and through evolutionary processes,  taking up both normal and pathological (whether excessive  or inadequate) manifestations of guilt. The second part of  the book turns to the socio-cultural aspects of guilt. In  what ways does religion deal with guilt? Does it compound  it or help individuals to resolve it? How do the major  religious traditions differ in their conceptions of guilt?  Secular alternatives in dealing with guilt are considered  in the light of the key moral philosophies that have  exerted the most influence in Western cultures. Finally,  Katchadourian addresses the ways in which society attempts  to come to terms with guilt as culpability through the  legal process.},
