Because They're Assholes - Violence and Gun Violence (Paperback)

In his third book on Guns in America, Mike Weisser deals with the connection between violence and guns. Questions that Mike asks and answers include: * Is America a more violent country than others? * What are the real factors influencing the rise and fall of American violence? * Do guns make us more violent? * Do we know how to identify and treat violent individuals? Drawing on a wide range of published studies and his unique understanding of American gun culture, Mike addresses issues usually ignored by other authors with his usual mix of no-nonsense facts, acerbic humor, and profound insight.
