Publisher's Synopsis

For many people, violence is fun, a thrill, a joke. For others, it gets you what you want. Many people use violence to control others, to punish, and to scapegoat. Violence violates dignity, worth, and autonomy and can cause long-term suffering. Based on interviews with perpetrators and survivors of violence, this book includes essays on the meanings of violence to perpetrators, the development of violent behaviors, how to be accountable, and the prevention of violence.
