The Violence Paradox
Despite the constant news of violence, from mass shootings to wars, psychologist Steven Pinker believes we may be living in the most peaceful period in human existence. Could it be true that physical violence has been in decline for centuries? And can it be prevented altogether? Or should we accept that violence is simply part of human nature? The Violence Paradox takes a journey through history and the human mind to explore what triggers violence and how it may have decreased over time.
