{"product_id":"violence-reflections-on-a-national-epidemic","title":"Violence: Reflections on a National Epidemic","description":"Drawing on firsthand experience as a prison psychiatrist, his own family history, and literature, Gilligan unveils the motives of men who commit horrifying crimes, men who will not only kill others but destroy themselves rather than suffer a loss of self-respect. With devastating clarity, Gilligan traces the role that shame plays in the etiology of murder and explains why our present penal system only exacerbates it. Brilliantly argued, harrowing in its portraits of the walking dead, Violence should be read by anyone concerned with this national epidemic and its widespread consequences.\n\n\"Extraordinary. Gilligan's recommendations concerning what does work to prevent violence...are extremely convincing...A wise and careful, enormously instructive book.\"--Owen Renik, M.D., editor, Psychoanalytic Quarterly\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0679779124\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0679779124.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Gilligan, James\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
