Why do we need another book on suffering? You may well be asking this question, as I did as I started reading. I finished by thinking that Melvin Tinker's book had gone over old ground in a thoughtful and thought-provoking way as well as offering new insights from the books of the Bible that deal with people who are suffering.
The result is not only an apologetic and a pastoral help but also puts the reader into immediate contact with Job and the Psalmists as they struggle with the issues for real.
