In a provocative and simulating book, Steven LeBlanc places warfare at the center of human existence. He sees it as a constant battle over scarce resources from the earliest days of our history. In so doing, he gives us hope for the future, in a world where we have the potential to feed everyone. He gives us an important contribution to a growing debate over the causes and future of war.--Brian Fagan, professor of Anthropology, University of California, Santa Barbara, and author of The Little Ice Age
Steven A. LeBlanc is the director of collections at the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology.
