Violence (Library Binding)

Today's media is focused on a pendulum of topics, at one side is constant coverage of reality stars who are famous for just being famous, and on the other side is constant reports of violence and violent crime at the local, national, and global level. What is the real story about violence? Across four chapters, readers will evaluate whether violence is a serious problem, the factors that contribute to human violence, the factors that lead to youth violence, and how society should respond to violence. Video games and gun control are among the specific topics presented.
