On Killing

sheldon_rapoza shared a tip "Every once in a while, I read a book that seems to be written years before it’s time. Unfortunately, this one foreshadows many of our current issues with violence today. The book is a psychological examination of killing, mainly in combat. A huge part of it is how poorly we understand and treat our veterans who we ask to defend us. But another theme of this book is our desensitization to violence, especially through media. Written in 1995, crazy to see the current status of mass shootings."
