About this listen

The book lays out the evolutionary, historical, and scientific evidence that a psychological immune system exists and details how this system functions and the impact it has had on our personal, social, and national life. It shows ways that it can be helpful in our attempt to identify and handle the threats and dangers that face us just as our biological immune system does. And, like our biological immune system, it has the potential to be both beneficial and lethal.

A view based on violence as the main driver of humans mainly as protection of perceived 'identity'. There are much richer theories out there as Marchall Rosenberg's compassionate communication which builds from a view of needs and context rather than violence. Reading Lawrence Leshan is more rewarding when looking into violence. A part from this the book is somehow all over the place.
