Does religion precipitate violence? Do pride, anger and vengeance lead to war? Can ideology persuade someone to blow themselves up? This ground-breaking book explores how tens of thousands of years of evolution have shaped our brains to fight, and not to fight. Drawing on insights gleaned as a soldier and a scholar, and a biologist, Mike Martin explains how the lives and deaths of our ancestors have shaped our behavior to propel us towards conflict, even as that option makes less and less sense." --Amazon.com. 650 0 $a War $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a War $x Moral and ethical aspects. 650 0 $a Aggressiveness. 650 0 $a Conflict (Psychology) 650 0 $a Social conflict. 941 $a 2 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909054824.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20191204012700.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2EDEFD9EE5A311E9B7B99A5997128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
