About this title: The twentieth century has been the bloodiest, most destructive century in all of human history. The determining challenge of the twenty-first century will be whether or not human beings can learn to live together and cooperate on all levels -- from the nuclear family to the human family. In "Getting to Peace," William Ury explores new scientific evidence which shows that human beings are not 'killer apes' but rather negotiators. War and domination, while pervasive in the last few millennia are actually exceptions in human evolution and could become the exception again.
