“If I could give each of you a graduation present, it would be this—the most inspiring book I've ever read." —
Bill Gates
A provocative history of violence—from the
New York Times
bestselling author of
The Stuff of Thought
,
The Blank Slate,
and
Enlightenment Now
.
Believe it or not, today we may be living in the most peaceful moment in our species' existence. In his gripping and controversial new work,
bestselling author Steven Pinker shows that despite the ceaseless news about war, crime, and"terrorism" violence has actually been in decline over long stretches of history. Exploding myths about humankind's inherent violence and the curse of modernity, this ambitious book continues Pinker's exploration of the essence of human nature, mixing psychology and history to provide a remarkable picture of an increasingly enlightened world.
