Media Reviews
If any single book could bring mankind to its senses, this book might qualify for that miracle...It is the product of one of the most alert, the most penetrating and the most mature minds of our time -- Lewis Mumford * The Times *
A major work of argument and reflection on human aggression * Economist *
A stunningly erudite book...it demands that we confront our own, and our civilization's character, if we are to understand the nature of our violence * New Society *
