Book excerpt: In this heartfelt and profound new book, Sidney Callahan, revered catholic psychologist and author, offers a reflection on suffering from a christian perspective. In contrast to C.S Lewis' The problem of Pain and other traditional approaches, Callahan introduces new insights from fields such as the psychology of human emotion, evolutionary biology and creation theologies. Drawing from her own harrowing experience of a mother's loss, she shows that Christians view suffering in a different way, with the expectation- in the face of all evidence to the contrary - that humans are created by God to experience joy.
