Description
No marks or inscriptions. Slight creasing to covers and to spine. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. 288pp. The author explores the sources of violence within ourselves and the way these are encouraged by orthodox child-rearing practices. She illuminates the cost in compassion and humanity in later life, both in the private and public domain and declares that peoples whose integrity has not been damaged in childhood . will feel no need to harm another person or themselves. 'This book can change lives.'
