A New Book from the Founder of Cure Violence Global
Cure Violence Global founder Dr. Gary Slutkin is releasing his new book, The End of Violence, a powerful case for why violence is not inevitable—it is contagious and preventable.
The End of Violence uncovers the invisible logic of violence – and how it works on our brains and bodies – offering an inspiring and time-tested roadmap for our recovery. Incisive, far-reaching and profoundly hopeful, it challenges the idea that violence is inevitable and shows us a concrete way to a more peaceful world.
