Publisher's Synopsis

What makes people act violently, either alone or as part of a mob? Why do they commit atrocities in times of war? Why do gangs, tribes, and even football supporters resort so readily to violence? Sofsky answers these questions in a book highly praised by German critics for its 'great intellectual power'.
