THE BETTER ANGELS OF OUR NATURE - STEVEN PINKER...

"If I could give each of you a graduation present  it would be this-the most inspiring book
I've ever read." -Bill Gates (May  2017)  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  New York Times 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.
