Violence is often described as a social issue, a moral failing, or an innate human instinct. But in fact, argues Dr. Gary Slutkin, violence is a contagion that infects a society like a disease. And we now know there is a cure. This isn't a metaphor. In The End of Violence , Dr. Slutkin draws on the expertise gleaned from four decades on the frontlines fighting deadly epidemics to reveal that violence operates according to the same predictable logic as every other contagious disease, initially infecting a small number of carriers then spreading from host to host.
