Violence is often regarded as an unavoidable fact of life. The truth is far more hopeful: violence is a disease that can be cured. 'Gary Slutkin is one of the most important thinkers and activists in the vital effort to understand and reduce violence....an invaluable contribution.' Steven Pinker, author of The Better Angels of Our Nature Drawing on decades spent fighting infectious disease before founding Cure Violence Global, Dr Gary Slutkin shows that violence behaves like any other epidemic - it spreads through exposure, but it can also be interrupted, contained and ultimately eliminated. By treating violence as a contagious illness rather than a moral failing, he reveals how communities around the world have begun to heal themselves, by following the basic epidemic playbook. These methods have dramatically reduced or eliminated violence in communities in the US, Latin America, and around the world. With clear-sighted pragmatism, The End of Violence uncovers the invisible logic of violence - and how it works on our brains and bodies - offering an inspiring and time-tested roadmap for our recovery. Incisive, far-reaching and profoundly hopeful, it challenges the idea that violence is inevitable and shows us a concrete way to a more peaceful world.
