Powerful book on how vicious humans can be to one another and depressing. I read this while finishing up the book by Temple Grandin on understanding animal and human behavior from an autistic animal researcher and the facts and theories she outlines about how the human part of our brain works versus the "lower" animal brain we still carry around. Hopefully, our human part will evolve further so that we humans can stop going to war with one another and hating others who live differently or believe differently than we do, but unfortunately the present and the past as detailed grimly in this book doesn't give me much hope. :( Jules
