We are delighted to announce that our book, Sorry, Sorry, Sorry: The Case for Good Apologies, will be published by Gallery Books, a division of Simon & Schuster, on January 10, 2023. Woot! Check out that gorgeous cover! Absorb those snazzy blurbs on the S&S web site!
We’ve been analyzing apologies in the news, pop culture, literature, and politics here at SorryWatch since (gulp) 2012. But in Sorry, Sorry, Sorry, we go deeper into research in psychology, sociology, philosophy, law, and medicine to explain why a good apology is hard to find…but also essential, powerful, and healing. We discuss why corporations, institutions, and governments seldom apologize well, how to teach children to apologize, and how gender and race affect both apologies and forgiveness.
