Acerca de esta escucha

Using data from groundbreaking research on mass shooters, including direct accounts from the perpetrators themselves, The Violence Project charts new pathways to prevention and innovative ways to stop the social contagion of violence.

Peterson and Densley have examined hundreds of data points in the life histories of more than 170 mass shooters, from their childhood and adolescence to their mental health and motives, aiming to establish the root causes of mass shootings and figure out how to stop them. They’ve also interviewed living perpetrators of mass shootings and people who knew them, shooting survivors, victims’ families, first responders and leading experts, gaining a comprehensive understanding of the real stories, rather than the sensationalised media narratives that too often prevail.

Instead of offering mere thoughts and prayers for the victims of these crimes, this book shares data-driven solutions for exactly what we must do – at the individual level, in our communities and as a country – to put an end to these tragedies that have defined our era.

LOVED THIS BOOK

I've always been curious about the brains of mass shooters and this explains it in such a clear way. I'd recommend anyone who is having trouble dealing with our current gun crisis give this a listen. as well as ppl who have ppl in their life who their concerned COULD commit a mass shooting. it really breaks down on what we as a society can do to stop the epidemic.

Excellent clear eyed look at awful ongoing problem

I grit my teeth and plunged ahead into this incredible book. Discovering the book during news reports on the latest Texas school massacre, once I began listening it truly helped me understand the full complexity and proven solutions, This is a helpful hopeful book in the midst of gut wrenching ultimately preventable tragedy. Thanks for writing this book.

Overall good summary of date surrounding mass shooting

The complexity to this problem is what makes the US unique in this issue. The book gives a good summary of the data surrounding mass shootings, studies to help decrease mortality rate and hope for the future. Listening to accounts from the shooter, the victims, victim families and shooters families was alarming, but powerful. I was honestly unprepared for how jarring it was and had to take breaks. This is incredibly powerful, and incredibly important work.

Excellent research and analysis of violence

A must read for anyone involved in anyway with violence!!!
A must read to all thick headed Republican elected officials who are blind to what is needed to stop mass shooting!

Very well researched and written

The book is part of a very in depth empirical study on mass shooter incidents in the United States. The authors off the book dissect the incidents by profiling the shooters, locations, methods and motivations. They draw several conclusions the most notable of all is that there is no easy button, no one law, program or funding solution that will prevent a complex problem. Instead they offer several plausible options that you are worth you time to listen to.

Incredible

This is an incredible book. I loved the straight-forward, no-nonsense, fact-based style it was presented in. Truly inspiring. I hope everyone in America will read it and be informed by it.

Important and Urgent

I read a few of the reviews saying it had a liberal bias and should have stuck to the facts. The facts are that the author explains in painstaking detail where the data came from, what methodology was used, where they are lacking data, etc. The author also provides many references, and has all of this information on the website. I suspect these reviewers are upset because some of the violent perpetrators specifically discuss online radicalization from right-wing extremist forums. That is a fact, not bias. The majority of church shootings happen in the South. That is a fact, verifiable. Not bias. It is factual to discuss how recent political events and media coverage have emboldened violent men, and this comes from those men themselves. This book is incredible, timely, and crucial.

Data driven

I appreciated the fact this book was consistently backed by data and not based on opinion.
