Hope is the most reliable sustainer of life. It offers the promise of something good in the future, contributes to resilience, and keeps one going. However, there are circumstances when hope dries up. This book seeks to map out such dark terrain of hopelessness. While it allows for the fact that a modicum of hopelessness might help in reducing infantile omnipotence and curtailing fixation on unrealistic goals, its focus is upon severe and clinically significant shades of hopelessness. The book opens with a broad overview of the nature, developmental origins, and technical implications of hope and hopelessness, and closes with a thoughtful summary, synthesis, and critique of the intervening essays; this summary forges both theoretically and technically significant links between the experiences of helplessness and hopelessness. Sandwiched between these opening and closing commentaries are nine essays which address the ontogenetic trajectory, phenomenological variations, cultural and literary portrayals, and clinical ramifications of sustained hopelessness.

"Hope has previously been a construct more of interest to philosophy and religion than to psychology. New research has shown, however, that hope is closely related to optimism, feelings of control, and motivation toward achieving one's goals. The Handbook of Hope presents a comprehensive overview of the psychological inquiry into hope, including its measurement, development in children, how its loss is associated with specific clinical disorders, and therapeutic approaches that can help instill hope in those who have lost theirs. A final section discusses hope in occupational applications: how the use of hope can make one a better coach, teacher, or parent."

Belief in the coming of a Messiah poses a genuine dilemma. From a Jewish perspective, the historical record is overwhelmingly against it. If, despite all the tragedies that have befallen the Jewish people, no legitimate Messiah has come forward, has the belief not been shown to be groundless? Yet for all the problems associated with messianism, the historical record also shows it is an idea with enormous staying power. The prayer book mentions it on page after page. The great Jewish philosophers all wrote about it. Secular thinkers in the twentieth century returned to it and reformulated it. And victims of the Holocaust invoked it in the last few minutes of their life. This book examines the staying power of messianism and formulates it in a way that retains its redemptive force without succumbing to mythology.

Ce livre est une réflexion sur l'acédie et son actualité à l'intérieur du dynamisme de l'agir humain. L'auteur part d'une hypothèse : l'acédie, péché monastique par excellence, que les anciens moines avaient tant étudiée, mais dont on ne parle pratiquement plus aujourd'hui, ne constituerait-elle pas un obstacle majeur dans le déploiement de l'agir de tout chrétien? Au terme d'une étude à la fois rigoureuse et facile à lire, il apparaît que l'acédie, à la charnière entre le charnel et le spirituel, est le piège mortel au cœur de la tension unitaire qui donne son sens à la morale et l'unit intimement à la spiritualité. Cette découverte fait apparaître d'une manière nouvelle et originale l'unité foncière de la morale et de la spiritualité, dans une démarche théologique vivante qui, écoutant en écho les Pères et saint Thomas d'Aquin, s'ouvre à un dialogue constructif avec la théologie contemporaine, dans les grandes perspectives de Vatican II. « Le titre bien suggestif, "La Saveur de Dieu", est plus qu'une invitation à retrouver la joie du dynamisme de l'agir humain tendu vers Dieu. Je vous remercie pour cette précieuse contribution scientifique sur l'acédie. Elle servira sans aucun doute à beaucoup d'âmes, assoiffées de perfection, à retrouver les délices d'une vie spirituelle abreuvée à la source intarissable de l'Amour éternel».(Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, président du Comité du prix Henri de Lubac)
