Raskolinkov's Rebirth: Psychology and the Understanding of Good and Evil

Author Ilham Dilman explains why a thoughtful psychology, encompassing the varied modes of being experienced by humans, is the best tool for investigating the nature of good and evil. To illustrate, he employs Raskolnikov, Dostoyevsky's axe-murdering protagonist in Crime and Punishment, following his alienation from goodness, his return to it, and finally, his ethical rebirth.
