Read MoreTwilight of Violence: An Interview with Steven Pinker by Sam Harris
Sam Harris has a great interview with Steven Pinker on his latest book, The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined.

It’s also important to note that this is a correlation which, as we all know, does not imply causation.
