Reconciliation is an analysis of Bishop Tutu's theology of ubuntu - an African concept recognizing that persons and groups form their identities in relation to one another.

The African principle of Ubuntu offers believers a new and radical way of reading the Gospel and understanding the heart of the Christian faith. This book explores the meaning and utility of Ubuntu applied to Western philosophy, faith, and lifestyles.

The first biography of its kind about Desmond Tutu, this book introduces readers to Tutu's spiritual life and examines how it shaped his commitment to restorative justice and reconciliation.
