About Beyond War: The Human Potential for Peace

Not so long ago, the institution of slavery was accepted by most people and women were considered too "dumb" to vote. Today a popular misconception is that human beings are inherently violent and that war has been and always will be with us. However, as "Beyond War" illustrates, war is not in our genes. We can choose peace. Just as Harriet Beecher Stowe's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" helped to depose the institution of slavery by shining a spotlight on faulty assumptions upon which it was based, Professor Douglas Fry has knocked the props out from under the erroneous assumptions that help justify the institution of war. With an impressive wealth of data from ethnological studies and the archaeological record, "Beyond War" pops the hot air balloons of those primatologists (Wrangham), and other war-fogged scholars (Lorenz, LeBlanc) who would have us believe that humans were territorial killers from the get-go. Every high school and college student, as well as concerned adult, should be exposed to the truths set out clearly in this very absorbing book. If our species doesn't commit suicide based on falsehoods in the next century or so, history will record that Douglas Fry helped to topple the institution of war by his insightful expose of the facts. With their more informed perspective, our descendants will condemn us for accepting the horrors of war just as we are shocked by those who perpetuated slavery. Don't miss reading this eye-opening classic.
