The Positive Function of Evil is written by P. Tabensky and published by Springer. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 023024226X (ISBN 10) and 9780230242265 (ISBN 13).

This collection explores the controversial and perhaps even abject idea that evils, large and small, human and natural, may have a central positive function to play in our lives. For centuries a concern of religious thinkers from the Christian tradition, very little systematic work has been done to explore this idea from the secular point of view.
